Holyfield v. Savarese
My prediction:
Nobody is going to pay to see this crap. I'd rather see Barbara Bush and Queen Elizabeth go at it with Gucci handbags. Yuck.

RE: Holyfield v. Savarese
I take it you are referring to the "a-has-been" versus "a-nobody" match-up? I agree. Unfortunately, that is the sad state of affairs in the present Heavyweight division. With a weak division, the older fighters of repute might see it as an opportunity to take a final pop at the championship. There have been whispers that Lennox Lewis (even Foreman!) might comeback. :o

RE: Holyfield v. Savarese
I will very surpised if Lennox even thinks about lacing up another pair of gloves now that he has landed a steady job on the HBO commentating team....

I hope that Lewis does not return to the ring. I really don't want to see him, or any other boxer get hurt. Older boxers returning to the ring run such a risk of serious injury, I'm surprised the boxing commissions allow so many of these fights to happen.

RE: Holyfield v. Savarese
Did anybody see this fight. It was similar to George Foreman's last fight an old man chasing a paycheck in a young man's sport. I hope this is it for Lewis, it was painful to watch the since they were both past their prime.

RE: Holyfield v. Savarese
There were moments, very brief moments, when Holyfield looked to resemble his former days. But you are right, it was not a good fight. Sadly, with such a weak Heavyweight division currently, it gives greater incentive for the "has-beens" and "ageing nearlys" to pull on the gloves again.
