Default Holyfield vs Rahman

Did anyone else catch this fight tonight? Stopped in the eigth round due to a monsterous hematoma over Rahman's left eye.

Holyfield won as he was leading on the scorecard at the time.

Holyfield was being interviewed after the fight and was explaining that he always put his head on Rahman's chest and that he was always trying to avoid Rahman's head butts. When showed the replay of the incident that resulted in the hematoma, Holyfield muttered 'OK, I'm not going to lie, that was a head butt'

I always thought he was a dirty fighter

You could actually understand what Evander was saying?

The man really should pack it in. He sounds like mushmouth from Fat Albert.

Yeah, that hemotoma was pretty big but, I watched the fight at the NBI and the dancer on stage was shaved and I had a monsterous hematoma in my pants.

I'm serious. I even yealled out "who's your barber" and got a smile thrown my way.
