Holyfield actually should have gotten a crack at one of the Klit bros after getting jobbed in the Valuev fight. Now it's too late though, he looked like trash against Sherman Williams.Comment

He only used his jab and won 8 or 9 rounds, if you think he won 6 rounds then you must have been watching another fight. 6-5-1? Really?!Comment

He looked like trash against Bobby Cyz & look what happened. Holyfield has always been sporadic as with him it was always a style that made the fight.. he beat up that dude Nielsen right after & he didn't complete the Williams fight due to injury so we can't say for sure what would've happened after just a couple of rds.
I believe if anyone can put up a fight against Wladimir... it's him. He'll make Klitschko nervous.. he'll be stuck in a dillema.. should I really BEAT up this legend & whaT if he beats me.... my entire resume goes to ****. He'll feel even more pressure than against Haye.. trust me i know what i'm talkin' here.
There's a big difference between Holyfield & Haye.. one tricks himself into believing he could do it while the other will die trying to realize his goal. The motivation Holyfield will have to prove the ENTIRE world wrong & the opportunity to complete 75% of his goal in one bout.. he will have Klitschko on the verge of a nervous breakdown during the fight pshycologically.. he knew Haye was a fake.. he knows Holyfield isn't>>> let's make it happen... it's time!Comment

& if Evander wipes out both Klitschko's in succession at age 50..... being undisputed at age 50 which has never been done.. being the first heavy to be undisputed with 4 major belts (WBO also) & Ko'ing the brothers back to back at there MOST invincible.... that would make Holyfield the best heavyweight of alltime by default as far as i'm concerned with no questions asked.. you want resume... that's your resume.. you want competition... he'll have faced the best comop with alltime greats transcending from the 70"s in Foreman to the new millenium in The Klitschko's & all those other greats in between from lEWIS.tYSON bOWE.. TONEY & WHO THE f WOULD FIGHT jOHN rUIZ & his style 3 times in a row...Comment

Thank you.. he did better against Valuev than Haye did. There's no reason he can't do better against Klitschko too. Some will say but he doesn't have the reflexes of Haye & will get hit much more. I say he won't implore the same gameplan & will be closer to Klitschko than ANY of his opponents during his winning streak. One thing Holyfield knows how to do with big guys is close the distance & when he does this he'll be hit with the jab much less & or lessen it's impact.
With Valuev he implored alot of movement because of his size & didn't go toe to toe at all.. he danced.. jumped in & out but most importantly didn't get hit by him. With Wlad he knows that he can be hurt.. with Valuev he was never hurt, I don't think he'll let Wlad establish the distance..
I think he's going to be right in his mug from the outset.. something some thought Haye would do. Holyfield knows he's screwed if he lets Wlad walk him down as he can't make him miss like Haye did.. HE'LL DO WHAT pETER tried to do ONLY with better results as peter is a wild swinger.. Holyfield is accurate with his punches when he gets them going.Comment

What's funny is that Holyfield said in a prior interview that Vitali would be the easier fight because he opens up & that will give him more opportunities....while he may be right... only thing is it's NOT a good idea for him to be hit too often by Vitali & that's certainly what would happen. Vitali does NOT stall his offense like Wlad does these days.. he lets his punches go.. throws them from every conceivable angle with variations of power.. opponent doesn't know which angle he's throwing from & if it's going to be an arm punch or a power punch.. also the fact Vitali's not liable to panic if Holyfield does happen to get inside & his jaw can take it,, you never knowthe style haye fought wlad with
