How did Holyfield do in Celebrity Big Brother

[Heartbreak_Kid79]

Holyfield was by the far the most famous (and talented) person in the house.... but a lions share of the viewers (and voters) are a younger generation of teenyboppers, many of whom will not realise Evanders accomplishments, being more familiar with the Reality TV contestents and glamour models. Also as these contestebts were more vocal and doing crazy things, they get the airtime.
Evander was in the background looking disinterested.... not doing much = no votes.

Mind you Evander would get paid the same fee whether he was first or last to leave.... first to go... on a per day basis, he was quids in for getting paid for doing as little possible

He was heard muttering as he left the studio "It was my shoulder, aint gonna be no rematch" - another theory was, he was worried, by the law of averages, that he owed one of the women in the house money.

I'm glad Holyfield is out of it for his own sake, he was starting to become less and less popular in the house and too much of his air time showed him sounding punch drunk and slow in comparison to the circus happening around him.

[Controversial]

From what I saw of him he hardly set the world alight, looks like he had a personality transplant. He just sat around not speaking or reading the bible. Then when he did speak he seemed to offend everyone. I thought the others might have asked him more about his boxing career and fighting Tyson but no one seemed to care or pay him much attention.

Evander looked uncomfortable from the moment he stepped inside the house; a definite case of a man who was once one of the most famous sports stars on the planet realising that he'd hit the bottom of the proverbial barrel. All rather sad to watch and only Jim Davidson, bless his unfunny arse, was the sole person to treat Evander with a degree of respect and understand exactly who Holy was and what he'd achieved. Hope he got way more than £50K for that ordeal.

He was the only one in there who's actually famous and he went out first, says everything about big brother really.

This is true.

Holyfield needs to have a word with his agent, because he didn't have a clue what he was walking into.

I know he needs the money, but I'm sure there are other ways a former undisputed cruiserweight & heavyweight champion of the world can earn money.

It'll only get harder as he gets softer. It's a young person's world in front of camera and to the kids Evander's an old man. The people who matter in the world were either not born or not long born when Evander beat Tyson.

They're all too far up their own arses thinking their famous to actually know who he is or that he actually achieved something in his life, which is more than the rest of them.
