These guys have already got lasting damage from boxing and are at a much higher risk of getting hurt now than they ever were during their fighting prime. Question: How do you feel about Evander Holyfield being licenced to fight in Florida at the age of 58?Īgain, I’ll say I’m completely against this happening, also. I could rant a lot about it but what good is it going to do? It just happens all the time in boxing, doesn’t it? Evander Holyfield But the saddest thing about it is that I’m not surprised and I don’t think anybody else is surprised that the fight is still going ahead. It makes a mockery of testing in the first place, because why test if there’s no consequences for a failed test? And what is the deterrent to stop people in future? It will actually encourage.Īndy Lee (trainer, former WBO middleweight champion) I think it’s disgusting and extremely dangerous. Jamie Moore (trainer, former European light-middleweight champion) Given the situation around Valdez’s test result I don’t see how either he or Robson Conceicao can be in a fit mental state to box on Friday night.
I don’t think the fight should be happening. And that’s as damning a statement as I can make on it.
