Holyfield needs to retire. Nothing he does now will affect his legacy, but his health could be in danger if he keeps on fighting.

Holyfield becomng a HW champ will be big for the HW division, since there's nothing else going on but young prospects and B class fighters fighting for world titles. I would love to see Holyfield fight Peter or Toney for a world title.

Evander always has a hard time with tall guys , and he had a hard time the last time with a mobile short guy, at this point in his career I see Valued toying with him, at this point Evander is just too slow the big russian will beat with with one arm tie behind his back....

I'd worry a great deal about Evander going against Peter and ending up like Jeremy Williams. We've already seen Toney/Holyfield and that wasn't pretty. The last five years haven't been kind to either, but I still think Toney would handle it with relative ease.

I saw this today on ESPN. I hope this fight happens. I'd love to see Holyfield clown Valuev, and I'd favor him to be honest. To me Valuev sucks, but he's big. That's all.

i really hope that Valuev will replace whoever it is that he is fighting for a fight with Holyfeild. I am rooting for Holyfeild in this one, but I cannot make a prediction for this fight.

P.S. James Toney now, I think, would get owned by Holyfeild. When he fought Holyfeild, he was not surrounded by fat

For a giant Valuev hits like a 4 year old girl, but he does have modest boxing skills, and I think that, is going to be enough, to handle and old and slowww used to be real deal

Ridicolous fight.Sauerland Promotions never would allow his fighters to fight the best.Besides they have to fight the No.1 challenger( if ranking tells the truth is another story

Just look at Sven Ottke the Pseudo Champion

It is just ridicolous
