Botha has not lost since a 2002 TKO defeat to Wladimir Klitschko. He took five years off and returned to action in 2007. He returns from a twelve round majority draw with Pedro Carrion.

Uganda? WTF??

Are they fighting there because Holyfield can't get licensed here in the states or what?

What a weird place to fight at and neither of them is Ugandian.

Yeah i think your right, but not about the 13 years thing, Botha was never anywhere near in Holyfields league. 13 years ago it's a mismatch, now it's a circus side show !!!
