What is your plan?<o></o> <o> </o> EVANDER HOLYFIELD: When I win, I am going to defend the title. My goal is to become undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. With that, I will take all of the things that come with winning.<o></o> <o> </o> Today I feel great and I am one day closer to fulfilling the goal that I set out to accomplish.<o></o> <o> </o> The naysayers have always been a big part of my life.

It is not so much the naysayers, but it is whether I can take the necessary steps to do what I can believe I can do.<o></o> <o> </o> I have had no problems with my shoulder in the recent victories.<o></o> <o> </o> http://www.fightbeat.com/news_details.php?NW=20412
You should've made the transcript sound like he talks: What is your plan? EVANDER HOLYFIELD: Wennawonna win, I begonna' 'fenda tie-ul. Myoal's ta b'cum unisuited heh-e-wet chanyon ubba worl. Widdat, I'a takalloda tings dat come wif winnun'.
:: ...yeah I wouldn't rule it out. He hasn't looked half bad in his last 4 fights though. If he was an unknown 25 year old guy coming off those wins we'd probably say he was in with a decent chance.
I wouldn't. Holyfield looked terrible in his last four fights. Just because he looked slightly less terrible than the four before it doesn't mean he has a chance.
he looked terrible compared to young Holy....or to any decent in shape heavyweight. But he didn't look much worse than the tub of goo hes up against next month or most of the rest of the top 10.
Do you understand how shitty he is? Here's a list of shitty fighters I'd easily pick over Holyfield at this point: Dominick Guinn Audley Harrison Paublo Vidoz Vladimir Virchis Matt Skelton Lamon Brewster Hasim Rahman Oliver McCall Michael Sprott Danny Williams Tye Fields Kali Meehan Shannon Briggs Juan Carlos Gomez DaVaryll Williamson Ray Austin Timor Ibragimov Luan Crasniqi Fres Oquendo (he beat Holyfield the first time) Really, at this point, the only fighters Holyfield can hope to legitimately beat are people like Joe Mesi, Michael Moorer and Jameel McCline, three guys who shouldn't be anywhere near a title shot, but unsurprisingly are, because the four champions suck so much.
Fair enough....I didnt see anything in the last 4 fights to show me hes worse than most of the nondescript bums you listed though. I could give a shit about the whole podgy fat ass, mentally fragile misfit division though so mibbes Im way off and hes gonna get stopped in 2 and embarrased.:dunno: opcorn:
His balance is nearly shot, he doesn't get enough leverage on his punches, and his workrate is abysmall.
