Comments Thread For: Povetkin vs Holyfield Clash To Land at Hallenstadion?

[Ogecca MaMa]

make the fight in US with fair judges and I guarantee this slow **** will lose and Holyfield will become HW champion

[johnnycontrolet]

This fight is a disgrace for the sport - I can`t believe that nobody cares how much in a worst case scenario this can hurt the sport we all like......

Steroids and HGH can do wonders for how you look....

Also on another point, even he beats that fake @ss chump Povetkin, that won't make history cause it's not even a real belt, Wlad has the real WBA (if there is such a thing) belt, Holyfield will just become the #1 contender in the WBA.

Your entitled to your opinion on the Steroids and HGH comment but that's the first thing most people say about someone that's exercise and is in good health. You might as well say Wlad is taken it too, but on the #1 contender comment I'm sorry but you have to talk to the WBA about that because they made this rule -If one of the multiple titles held to earn the designation WBA Super Champion is the WBA's own title, then the fighter is promoted to Super Champion and their regular title becomes vacant for other WBA-ranked boxers to fight for. Thus, the WBA tables will sometimes show a WBA Super Champion and a WBA Regular Champion for the same weight class.
Sometimes it is possible for a regular champion to become super champion without adding another organization's title; Chris John is an example.

Will Holyfields WBF 'title' be on the line too?

That would be great, the winner would then have TWO worthless 'titles'

To be a champion of a sanctioning body you have to be #1 in that sanctioning body. Wlad is #1, he is the WBA champion, the rest are contenders. You can play make belief all you want to but Wlad is the WBA champ, Povetkin is just the #1 contender.

Oh and Holyfield is juicing like a mofo:

Holyfiled has an alt, his name is Evan Fields...

A Sherman Williams fight was well on it's way to being bad for Evander's health, until he quit.

Povetkin will win this with ease.

Why is this fight even being made? Was Muhammed Ali unavailable?

According to its official web portal, Zürich-based Hallenstadion will be the venue for the return of Alexander Povetkin (22-0, 15 KOs), as he make his first defense of the WBA (“regular”) heavyweight championship. Hallenstadion’s news list announces that the first ever Russian super heavyweight gold medalist will face multi-time champion and ring legend Evander Holyfield (44-10-2, 29 KOs) on December 17, almost three years after Holyfield suffered a controversial loss to Nikolai Valuev at the very same stadium.
Holyfield is presently unranked by the World Boxing Association. Hallenstadion seats around 13.000 fans.

Holyfield has never been busted with steroids.

Vitali Klitschko however, has.
