Noway anyone is going to pay him 250k. A fifth of that might still be lala-land.

A shame that he cant do a 4 rounder with Iron Mike...
those 2 could still draw some serious $ even at this point

It'd probably be easier to get Evander to stop trying than to get Tyson back. he seems pretty content without being in the sport

I know Evander has some money issues but this is ******. He's 50 - he's way past it and he's not going to make a scratch on his money issues. 250k - tax - trainers fees, dues, debts ...

He needs to find another income stream. Folks always said Tyson was dumb, Mike has made a semi successful TV/film career for himself, a broadway show, a discovery channel series and book deals.

Evander can atleast get some movie cameos.

Let Holyfield Get KO'd By A Klitschko & Let's Be Done With This Nonsense!

This is how pathetic this division is, the worst in Boxing History. The Klitschko brothers are the only two legitimate Heavyweights, and rightfully Champions. They could fight until they are 60, because this division has NO threats. Washed up names, and guys 50lbs over weight, slow, not conditioned; just a gross example of what this Heavyweight Division looks like. Evander could do Boxing a big service by getting out of the Sport from a fighting stand point, and start growing the amatuer, Golden Gloves, and Olympic teams, like he came from. These Heavyweights for the most part, are slow, methodical, poor cardio condition, fat, soft, out of shape, and it's tiresome to hear about. We need a young heavyweight chisseled like a 22 year old Mike Tyson or Evander Holyfield to develop and land on the stage and destroy everyone in site with hand speed that resembles a welterweight, and set the tone.

Until his eyesight fails him and the brush can no longer find the canvas. The spirit is willing but the physical skills have departed. We love you Evander, so please hang up the gloves.

Lol I know I was just being sarcastic. It's sad to see this. But then again I remember him buying 18 bedrooom mansions in ATL. There's no pension in boxing so these dudes go broke and decide to lace up the gloves again. Hope these current fighters are taking heed.
