    Is Evander Holyfield The Victom Here?

    I CAN NOT believe the actions of the New York State Athletic Commission in suspending Evander Holyfield's right to box in N.Y. and for the most part, anywhere in the United States if their bogus ruling is upheld.

    HELLO...Did they happen to see that a fat and rusty Rid**** Bowe is again plying his trade ? Did they notice that Tony "THE DUD" Tubbs is still slinging leather ? Sure I'd like to see Evander retire but it has to be HIS choice unless he fails the medical exam. If Mike Weaver wanted to box again, I doubt if he would be blocked from returning to ring wars. Butterbean fights whenever he feels like it. [details]

    They need to do a total and complete check of Evanders brain before they let him fight again, he stutters and slurrs his words worse than any of the other people on your list, if he clears everything let him fight but he sounds in BAD shape

          I can see why people would want to force im to quit, because frankly, he's just not competitive anymore. I think the medical exam is a good idea. If he passes it then he should be allowed to end his career the way he wants to, but if he doesn't then he shouldn't be allowed to go on. All I know is that it's sad to watch him when he's merely a shadow of his former self...Doesn't Evander have a family? He should think about his health if he does.

            Holyfield is 42 years old, and has a bad heart, He should decide to retire on his own. I don't think he needs anyone else to tell him to. He doesn't show anything anymore, I mean, He should have the medical exam, and it should be his descion to stop fighting, But the New York State Athletic Commision is just looking out for him. Nobody wants to see Holyfield turn into a brain dead has been, opposed to just being a has been.
