      Holyfield made some terrible business decisions. He should have just made the Tyson fight without complications or demands. It would have paid him much more than this did, and now any possibilities of a third fight are dead.

        I heard Triller’s trying to bring Rocky Balboa out of retirement. They’re thinking trilogy with Clubber Lang.

          At the end of the day it’s coming out of the pockets of people who can afford it because it’s their tax money that is paying for the PPV purchases.

            To be fair, Holyfield was never hurt.

            that said, the ref was right to stop it before he did get hurt. As inept as Belford was, it was only a matter of time before he landed something on the old man. That staggering around defense only works for so long, till the other guy times your wobble.

              As much as I'm NOT a fan of Canelos....I think he actually legitimises the sport of boxing. He refuses to give Jake Paul the payday because he says that's not boxing even though he knows its 50 Mil for about 6 mins work. He could have followed Floyd's lead since the McGregor fight but he didn't. He has money He doesn't need to sell his respect or as some people like to call it..."legacy".

              When Canelo retires, just like Floyd, he’ll fight Jake Paul or some other bigger celebrity then.
              When Floyd was 31 like Canelo, he did legitimize boxing by fighting boxers. Did you not know that?

              Perhaps you didn’t know Floyd’s been retired over 4 years now ?

                The body shot hurt him right at the start....it took a lot out of him. It reminded me of the James Toney fight when he went down from a body shot. I didn't want to see an all-time great who will be 59 in a month take any more hits than he did. He never should have been licensed to begin with.

                  Holyfield looked like **** and he is very lucky he was fighting Belfort tonight and not Mike Tyson cause Mike would’ve killed him lol. Didnt the Triller president say that Mike was scared to fight Holyfield in a rematch?

                    You may be right...but don't try to bolster an argument by putting up predictions against facts.

                      How are you missing the fact that Floyd is retired. He’s been retired 4 years. He’s following in the footsteps of the great Ali, Frazier and even Joe Louise. Those are facts.
                      Floyd was fighting boxers at 31 too. That’s a fact too.
