That would be the hammer! Box legend Evander Holyfield is allegedly in front of a comeback. And that in the tender age of 58 years.
As several US media reports, the former heavyweight world champion is to rise in the Staples Center in Los Angeles against the 44-year-old Brazilian Vitor Belfort on September 11th on September 11th.
Alabama's links will therefore jump in at short notice for his compatriot Oscar de la Hoya. The Golden Boy is suffering from Corona despite complete vaccination protection and therefore can not compete.
For Holyfield, who has delivered legendary battles with Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis in the 1990s, it would be the first Fight for over ten years. On May 7, 2011, he defeated the Danes Brian Nielsen by Technische K.O in Copenhagen. In the tenth round.
Incidentally, the duel against the former UFC Champion Belfort is to be evaluated as a regular professional beam and would not be a show event accordingly.

It is questionable, however, whether the allegedly still well-trained Holyfield is actually fit enough to get permission to the Fight from the relevant Californian Box Commission.
