Evander is still in great shape. If he really does his best to win, this politician has no chance.

If this is really happening, it's just a fun publicity stunt. No punches will be thrown. Wole Soyinka is refereeing, ffs. This would be like Holyfield "fighting" Barack Obama with Maya Angelou as referee.RScarf1 wrote:Evander is still in great shape. If he really does his best to win, this politician has no chance.
