Hi everybody. For those that can't get the fight and want the spoiler, Al Bernstein (I think) says Evander Holyfield is winning almost all the rounds through 9. I just got the update.
Update: Bernstein and co. says Valuev has been very poor tonight, even ''comatose'' and that Holyfield, still not sharp is putting in ''an adequate performance'' and that this is all he needed.
Update: 1 round to go and Holyfield, barring a hugely unpopular decision will get his hands on the world heavyweight title an unprecedented fifth time.
Update: Valuev is ''giving his title away'' and he needs a kayo or a corrupt judge, I guess.
Update: I have no idea if this is true but someone online is spouting off that Holyfield was robbed and Valuev got the decision 2 of three judges. I'm already hearing cries of Russian mafia. God help boxing if Valuev won that fight. When he put his hands up after the fight, the audience booed him. Al Bernstein called it ''a delusional gesture'' considering his dreadful performance.
Update: Boxrec.com has adjusted to show Valuev is the winner by majority decision. I guess God has washed his hands of boxing. Valuev does not deserve this. I never thought he was a great fighter but obviously a decent fighter who is mostly just a threat due to his size. He was not a champion today. As far as I'm concerned, he's no longer the champion.
