He still got it. It's amazing he's 47 and still in better shape than Tyson(no ****).

Good for Holy.. Now He should really retire his health isnt lookin too hot right now

It was clear Holy was going to win, but I thought he would do it by decision, good for him getting the KO.

He talked about wanting one of the Klitschkos next, don't go that way Holyfield or you'll get hurt...

Give the man another title shot like he deserves


Give him David Haye

Holyfield looked young and Botha looked even older...

This new format for photos is great. I couldn't be bothered to look through the pics as they where presented before so cudos to boxingscene.com.



Lol at the poster saying that Holyfield still has it. Look mate. He didn't beat a contender. He beat a fighter who was a contender 20 years ago.

I'll tell you, Evander would *still* put up a better fight than Eddie Chambers or Kevin *Queenpin* Johnson did against K-2. One thing for Evander, he's not a quitter. I'm an atheist, but if Evander does ever unify all the titles again, as he says he wants to do, I'll consider coverting to his version of Xianity. People laugh at him, but he's still got more going for him than most of the newer crop of American heavyweights.

Yeah, but when you look at the current crop of American heavies, Evander does still have more than most of them. He's never out of shape, for one thing, unlike Arreola, Johnson and Chambers. He also never just quits. I mean, if Evander fought Vitali, he'd at least try to get it done, unlike someone like the remarkably inept Kevin Johnson, one of the most embarrassing American heavyweights *ever.* Evander just highlights the laziness and lack of discipline amongst current US heavies. He's *still* better than almost all of them.
