At a recent press conference to announce his official return to boxing, former heavweight champion Evander Holyfield (38-8) began making delusional statements about being able to beat any heavyweight in the division. [details]

Oh my ... Does he have the wish to one day die in the ring? -
It's kinda funny to laugh at these statements, but at least the guy still has faith in himself. He's been praised for his heart all through his career, and now he's a laughingstock for still believing in it.Comment

Evander.... Shut up!Comment

He's going to go out like Apollo Creed. Dying for what he believes in. Probably Wladamire Drago...erh Klitschko will be the one to put him outta his misery too.Comment

As mentioned in the article I wouldn't put it past King to put his one of his massively overprotected fighters in against him for a no-risk high payday.
Unfortunately, the risk to Holyfield would be huge. With his lack of speed and immense whiskers he'd take a monolithic beating. It doesn't bear thinking about. Let's pray for exemplory refereeing.Comment

Why the hell are they even allowing this? What type of quack doctor is giving this guy medical clearance to fight??!!! He can barely put a proper sentence together, and his reflexes and coordination have plummetted over the past six years, are those symptoms not significant enough to keep this guy out of the ring??!!!Comment

I think Evander needs some credit for being brave enough to keep fighting but at the same time he needs a reality check because this guy has already reached his peak and now he is just becoming worse and worse so everyone put your hands together and pray for him.Comment
