This is ridiculous. War Holyfield!

Actually I'd laugh my ass off at Teddy if Evander pulled this off, and sad to say, I think he's got a shot.

man, it doesnt have to do with a fight. if Evander can handle Sasha - good. They have no respect for fighting Evander..they cant call themselves boxers lol. I'd love see them fight him in 80s,90s

Wladimir personally refused to fight holyfield, as he said on ringside, he has too much respect for holyfield to fight him.

he knows he would destry holyfield in 1 round and cause him serious damage.
(tho i can imagine holyfield laying in hospital asking for a rematch)

The same. Both Klitschkos said they won't fight Holyfield unless he became a mandatory and were forced to do it.

As sad as it is, even a round 1 knockout won't get Holyfield out of boxing and expect him after he loses to fight 5 more bums and fight for the WBA title again at 55.
