Evander is either going to lay ou Oleg or Briggs... Maybe even the slow punching Russian giant!

Quest to what, fighting FireFighters?
Maskaev could have been an option, but that belt's got Klitschko and Peter all over it, so Holy can kiss WBC good-bye
Wlad / Valuev - I don't think an under 220lb, 44 year old Holyfiled can go against a current #1 HW fighter (no chance) nor against a 7"+ giant.
His only chance is against Briggs/Sultan and maybe Chagaev shall he beat Valuev.
But the ageing asthma Briggs is his best chance IMO

Originally posted by Franko View PostYeah, you're pretty much spot on. However, the heavyweight division is in such a state that you just never know. Personally, (and probably the majority feel the same) i thought Holyfield should've retired (and stayed retired) a long time ago.
Well... He is a tad old for boxing lol... But I still think he has what it takes to get anyone one of those belts for a 5th time.
