Evander Holyfield vs Nikolai Valuev

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.

Joe Calzaghe, The best European Fighter?

Is Joe Calzaghe the best European Fighter?

I think Joe Calzaghe probably is the best European fighter, what other boxer in recent years has acheived what Joe has?

Will Joe Calzaghe now retire after beating two legends, Bernard Hopkins and Roy Jones. I hope the temptation to keep on fighting isn't too much. Being 46-0 and undefeated in 18 years!This is a great record and i think he should retire and keep that superb record intact.

Joe Calzaghe is now in the record books with the all time greats, being one of a handful of boxers to retire undefeated. That's IF he retires now. He has nothing more to prove and i think no matter who he fight and beats, the American press will always have some angle to make the win look less of a victory then it was, something like, the fighter was too old, or too green etc.

Joe Calzaghe is not superman and if he keeps on fighting he will lose. Age catches up with everyone.
