    I heard about this a few hours ago and hoped it wasn't true , the only upside is Ibragimov will probably put an end to Holyfields comeback , which is only going to get him seriously hurt if it continues .

    Ibragimov will be far too quick and mobile for todays Holyfield .

    Holyfield is too slow, but he will try hard.

    I love Evander and want him to win-then retire, that would be better than the rocky films...he is a true warrior,

    Holyfield will be lucky to make it past 5 or 6 rounds..

    unfortunately, his aim is to unify the heavyweight division before the end of 2008. i think it's better if he loses now to Ibragimov than goes on to take a severe beating from Klitschko.

    I might sound mad here but Holyfield's performances of late haven't been bad and Ibragimov is no world beatr. I give him a chance here.
