“It’s Coming That Way”- Evander Holyfield Hints at Massive Trilogy Fight Against Mike Tyson

Boxing fans all over the world may be in for a great ride after Evander Holyfield revealed some truly shocking news. The much-awaited fight between Holyfield and Mike Tyson may take place soon enough.

This news comes to boxing fans as a sigh of relief amidst particularly troubling times. The two boxing legends have been teasing fans for quite some time. Evander Holyfield by entertaining questions about a trilogy fight and Tyson Fury by posting videos boasting of his surprisingly shredded physique.

Holyfield recently confirmed that people from both sides have engaged in serious talks about a potential comeback fight. The pair, in their 50s, have expressed interest in participating in exhibition fights.

Holyfield holds the upper-hand if the pair are to engage in the final edition of their trilogy. He has bested Iron Mike on two occasions. One of which is infamous for Tyson attempting to bite a chunk out of Holyfield’s ear.

“His people have been talking to my people and we haven’t yet got a solid deal together. But it’s coming that way. If it happens, then that’s no problem. Well, the thing is, he was doing something and I was doing something. When I told people about it, they saw me working out and they kind of put two and two together,” Holyfield told The 3 Point Conversation.

Holyfield insists that both him and Tyson making a comeback at the same time is nothing more than happenstance. He claims the two did not plan to fight each other. However, if a situation like that should arise, he is not one to back down.

Why Evander Holyfield and Mike Tyson want to make a comeback

As far as Holyfield is concerned, he just wants to set an example for the younger generation. He wanted to show the effect that good life choices can have on one’s body to up and coming boxers.

“I wanted to come back and be able to show the kids that if you take care of your body at a young age if you don’t get bad habits, you don’t gotta put them down. Then at an old age, you ain’t got to be worried about what type of person you’re going to be or if somebody going to have to help you,” said Holyfield.

Holyfield is making a comeback only for philanthropic reasons. He wants to raise money for his foundation that will be invested to help young children.

“I’d been telling people that I wanted to start doing exhibitions. Meaning that with my foundation, the Holyfield Foundation, I wanted to help the kids,” claims Holyfield.

Tyson’s comeback and training seem to have inspired the 57-year-old considering the video that he posted on Instagram.
