Holyfield is 59... one year way from being considered an elder. This is bad. Vitor is only 44 and back on juice. How was this sanctioned I don't know.

Holyfield is also a HW lineal boxing champion while Vitor is a guy who did MMA at MW. Also Holyfield lost a split decision for a HW world title only 10 years ago and is known to take care of his health. I think if Vitor makes it past round 3 its because Holyfield showed mercy.

Mixed feelings looking at this. Considering Holyfield is pushing 60, his body and movement still look great.
At the same time, you can't deny he looks slow. Will experience alone be enough to not be in serious danger against a 14 years younger and probably much faster Belfort?

Pretty much what I expected, Holyfield was just too slow to really do something against the faster and more explosive Belfort.
While I don't think Belfort really hurt Holyfield, it was a good thing the ref stopped it when he did to prevent any harmful damage being done.
Of course seeing Holyfield stopped that quickly kind of destroys the appeal of a Holyfield vs. Tyson III, but then again Triller probably used Holyfield here, because they were still contractually obligated to give him a fight after the Tyson rematch fell through. Two bird with one stone.
Also Silva had no trouble taking care of Ortiz, who came in 5 pounds over the agreed 195lbs catchweight.
What else, David Haye had a successfull comeback and now tries to trash talk his way into a title fight with Fury, audience members chanted 'We want Trump!' and a woman who screamed during the 9/11 moment of silence had to be ejected.
It was a circus show alright lol

If in that training footage Holyfield would've looked half as strong as Tyson does today I'd have picked him above Vitor as well.
Silva vs. Belfort is a cool matchup, but didn't Silva at some point say something about not wanting to fight his fellow countrymen?

I think I do remember that from years ago. Maybe they could get Weidman, Bisping, or RJJ.
