Holyfield to Get Shot at Valuev's WBA Title
POSTED: November 13, 2008 - 3:29 pm
CATEGORIES: Boxing
Evander Holyfield is getting another chance at a heavyweight title.
The 46-year-old former champion will challenge 7-foot Russian giant Nikolai Valuev for the WBA crown on Dec. 20 at Hallenstadion in Zurich, Switzerland, arena management said.
Holyfield (42-9-2, 27 KOs) hasn't fought since losing a one-sided decision to then-WBO champion Sultan Ibragimov more than a year ago. Holyfield is winless in his last four title fights since beating John Ruiz for the vacant WBA belt in October 2000.
The former Olympic bronze medalist has insisted that he wants to keep fighting until he regains the heavyweight title, but he's also been having financial problems.

I agree with Brayden. Evander please retire. He doesn't deserve a title shot at all. Valuev is going to KO him in less than 5 rounds.
