Is there a spoiler in this article? It's on TV tomorrow night but the match has already happened.

Well Rocky Balboa was all pretend, too, but I was still pretty pissed off when somebody revealed the fight result on one of the forums!

Still a waste of anyones fornicating time. I can't believe there are grown adults who watch that shite.

It's just for shits and giggles...Holyfield not too long ago had a charity exhibition with the chairman of the WBA, with 50 bucks being gained for every punch thrown or something to that extent.

It wasn't much good... all pulled punches from Holyfield, overacting from Hardy, and a typical wrestling non-finish when a third party got involved.

Still, harmless stuff, easy money for Holyfield and a good promo for his fight. He got a huge reception from the crowd, so hopefully many of them will tune in to his fight. Then, who knows, if it's a good fight, some new boxing fans might be born :TU:
