Fight over. Holyfield landed an impressive 1-2 in the 9th. Dropped him again in the 10th and they ruled it a slip. Awesome action fight, but against limited opposition and Holy gets killed against a quality fighter.

Analysis: real easy, Holy looked decent against a "name" that came out of retirement in April and was gassed in round 4. Holy started holding around round 7, indicating he was tired, with limited action, at that time. Should he fight a puncher, and not a Liakiovich (sp) type fighter, play KO against and under next fight. Holy got hit with a lot of big punches by a limited fighter, and a Brewster, Maskaev, Klitchko would have KO'd him within 7.

Yah; I agry per normal alwayswin. "V" is better than I expected thru 4 comeback fights. & I got a little back on my o-3 start on those first 3 fights 2nite. But yah; "V" could get hurt vs. a Klitschko or some real masher. Might have a little shot at Ruslan, Sultan, or Oleg. But I can think of 5 to 10 Heavys that I'd take vs. "V" in a NYC second.

There was a lot of head use. I have always been a supporter of Holy but I too am tired of the elbows and butts. It's almost hard to argue it's not deliberate at this point.
