I'm really hoping this is a exabition  fight now, It has to be right . I don't think Evander Hollyfield would of taken a fight on a weeks notice, I think if it an exbition fight, It be ok and honestly putting shot fighter against young monster in real fights is way worst if Vitor and Evander won't go that hard to the head. But if it is a real fight, They're a specal place in hell for everyone involve in the fight, and supporting it. Evander in no condition to fight. He look pretty bad with CTE and is slow AF in boxing, TRT Vitor would knock him out bad

The news just came out about an hour or so ago that this is now an exhibition.  I have already changed it.
But honestly, I don't have a clue what's going on with this giant **** show now!!!
I am actually still hoping it gets cancelled

Belfort vs. Holyfield
Evander Holyfield, TKO, R5
Okay I'm ole school. I followed E.H. through the 84 Olympic Trials and never rooted against him since. I've seen the footage of Evander. He looks distant. Like this is what it is and he HAS no choice but to take this money grab. Even So??? He is Evander Holyfield. Once he is under the lights,I'm hoping he comes to life. What I would love to see Is 50% of the old Holyfield. I think a 50% old Holyfield can still school a over the hill Vitor.

Belfort vs. Holyfield
Vitor Belfort, TKO, R3
Exhibition or not, this is still without doubt the worst fight I've ever seen booked. As for the fight itself? No ******* clue but Evander Holyfield's open workout was very worrying to watch. I'm not going to think too hard about this fight as thinking about an all time boxing great like Holyfield returning at the age of 58 is just too depressing to think about. Best case scenario is this fight gets cancelled but I'll also happily settle for Holyfield not getting hurt too badly.

Silva vs. Ortiz
Anderson Silva, TKO, R2
It's mad to think these two are fighting in a boxing ring rather than the octagon.

Haye vs. Fournier
David Haye, DEC
Only picking a decision as David Haye does seem like a nice guy who will happily settle for out boxing his mate Joe Fournier by a World record UD points margin rather than actually hurting him. Haye can end this whenever he wants but I think he'll settle for making Fournier look like a fool.

Vences vs. Carroll
Andy Vences, DEC
Close fight so I may as well just pick the underdog with the home advantage.

Odds swung to TRTITOR from +130 to - 250 after the videos of Holyfield done the rounds.

You know what my actual betting advice for this is? A draw. If you can get the odds.
Every other of these "exhibitions" has ended up in a draw.

I think we get a sloppy AF, non punching, lots of hugging, **** show! 
Maybe that's more hope speaking but I am looking for odds on the draw

Draw is a good one, although given that it's Triller, and there's no huge size discrepancy ala Logan/Floyd, I gotta think it won't make it past three.

Personally, despite being a degenerate gambler, I'm not touching this fight with a ten foot pole. Vitor could run into a slow-mo counter or Evander could have a stroke mid-fight. Even russian ping pong seems like it'd be less volatile in terms of what to expect.

Belfort will join James Toney in the list of MMA fighters who have knocked out Holyfield, truly a historic moment for the wide world of sports.

Literally nobody wants this fight. No one on earth was sitting around thinking, "You know what I want to watch? Two washed up MMA fighters in a different sport where their best tools aren't allowed. And I want to listen to Donald Trump fart his way through it too. Feed me dog **** and glass please."

Haye vs. Fournier
David Haye, TKO, R2
Haye's boxing is likely better than Reykon's, I think he'll be ok.

I recall these same feeling's I had for Holyfields SAFTEY back in 1996.
I thought Tyson was gonna hurt him. 
Turned out Evander is a big boy and could handle himself that night via TKO 10.
So on that thought I'm not going to worry. 
Money grab or not, Evander is a big boy. He will handle Vitor.

 I'm thinking Silva and Ortiz steal the show here, being the only legitimate fighters in that age category.

Predictions: 3 of 3 Winners, 1 Perfect, 175 Points   |   Tied for 169th

Belfort vs. Holyfield
I have got Vitor Belfort at -240. He has a xenotropic fight IQ. Belfort might violate the canvas.

Haye vs. Fournier
I am sticking with David Haye at -1000. He has a kempt dim mak. Haye is about to balance the unthinkable.

Silva vs. Ortiz
I elect Anderson Silva at -1200. He has a luxurious gogoplata. Silva ought to nationalize the cake.
