Evander Holyfield Fails To Beat Nikolai Valuev - Holyfield Robbed

Evander Holyfield Fails To Beat Nikolai Valuev - Holyfield Robbed

After one of the most boring, inactive, no action fights of the last decade, Nikolai Valuev retains his belt. I want to make it clear, Evander Holyfield was robbed. He clearly won the fight. Nikolai Valuev hardly threw a punch all night, but still he got the decision. I think it is terrible that this type of thing can happen in boxing in this day and age.

From the first bell, Evander Holyfield was moving well around the ring, throwing the odd punch here and there, trying to avoid Valuev getting too close. But when Valuev did get close he did nothing. Nikolai Valuev threw about 20 punches throughout the whole fight.

This fight was a clean example of how bad the Heavyweight division is at the moment. Fair enough, Holyfield done what he needed to do in order to get the win, staying mobile and throwing a few punches when he had the chance. But still they robbed him. I must admit neither guy was impressive at all, but that was Evander Holyfield 's fight, not Nikolai Valuev's. You could even see in Valuev's face afterwards, he knew he had lost.

The judges have a cheek, and should all be sacked, making the clear winner the loser!

This fight does not deserve anymore coverage by me, it was that bad.We all know who the winner was and it was NOT Nikolai Valuev. The winner was clearly Evander Holyfield.

Holyfield Robbed In His fight With Valuev.

This fight is being looked as unfair, many people are questioning why Evander Holyfield has got this Heavyweight Title fight, most people think he didn't deserve it,basically it's his name that has made this fight happen, he is so well known and established as one of the all time greats, i think he desrerves this shot.

Wheather that's a safe choice or not is another matter altogether, Holyfiled is 46 years old! Is it the right option to even allow him to fight, should the boxing board of control of said no and protected him from himself. But what can we expect them to do? He past all health checks and is healthy and wants to fight.

Evander Holyfield vs Nikolai Valuev should be interesting, what does Evander Holyfield have left. He has prepared well for this fight, but could Nikolai Valuev just be too big, at this stage of Holyfields career to land some effective punches. Nikolai Valuev is massive in size, and from watching the weigh in, i think Evander Holyfield will have serious problems trying to connect flush in Valuev's face due to the sheer size difference, Holyfield has to work the body to bring the hands down then go for the head shots.

Evander Holyfield still has great power and determination and he has caused upsets many times in the past, so there's no way im going to say Nikolai Valuev will win this fight. You just cannot write off Evander Holyfield.

Nikolai Valuev isn't even a good boxer or puncher, it's his size that has been the problem for all the fighters that have faced him. He is very cumbersome and slow. But he is so big, it's laughable.

If Evander Holyfield does win the title from Nikolai Valuev, where does it end for Holyfield? In some ways i think it's safer if he loses, maybe he will retire then. If he wins, he will keep on fighting which could be dangerous.

I really hope Evander Holyfield can win this fight, but has age caught up with him too much now..We will have to wait and see.
