Evander Holyfield will be live on Talksport Radio next Monday, on the Alan Brazil breakfast show.

The show is on from 6am - 10am; I think Holy will be on from 9am.

Talksport Radio is on 1089/1053 MW, DAB or on the internet on:-

He looked bemused at times on Soccer AM this morning.

Was it my imagination or did he walk very slowly when he came on?....

Eh?....

Check out his interview on the BBC website... its really enjoyable - Holyfield seemed quite sharp.

I thought Holyfield came across ok on Soccer AM.

Sure he looked bemused at times but I think most Americans would when posed with the latest 'soccer' in jokes or references to subject matter they simply have no knowledge of.

he came across ok on radio 4 this morning. although i dont think melvin bragg will be asking him to appear on "in our time"

What does that mean?

Evander came across very well on Talksport yesterday, as well as on Inside Sport on BBC1 last night.

My only problem is that a farce with Tyson looks very imminent!

I enjoyed the Inside Sport interview with him last night, he's a top bloke (although delusional). If you haven't achieved what you want in boxing by the time you're 45 you're not going to IMO

I thought he came across well last night, a lot more humble than David Haye did! Can't wait for that scrap on saturday.

Is it right that Tamar Hussein (Football Factory etc) beat Holyfield in some punching game on the show on Saturday morning?

Evander didn't go for it at all, even that twat Danny Dyer hit it harder than him

I think next time Haye is on s0ccer am he should have a proper go at it, restore some pride to boxing after Darren Purse hit it harder than Carl Froch (who was one week away from a fight and nervous of hurting his hand) and a couple of cockney actors hit it harder than Holyfield. Now that nobhead Rio Ferdinand is saying he'll hit it harder still

I want to buy Evander's book, but I get the feeling he's still going to be fighting in 2020, so his story is only in it's youth; so it would be a waste of time buying it now!!!! :P

Yeah you're right, but aslong I'm afraid Foreman is the only man to prove that wrong...and thats who Holyfield now constantly refers to.

He was also on Loose Women yesterday - apparently this is some dire, mid day TV show on ITV1. He was talking about wanting to fight Tyson and also his book.

My good lady taped it for me but haven't watched it yet.

I've heard that the winner will face RJJ. And no, I'm not joking!

I doubt Tyson can get in shape to hold his hands up for 3 rounds now, let alone fight.

I think Holyfield summed himself up quite rightly on Soccer AM when asked about fighting Klitschko. He basically said he was a big draw and if Klitschko wants to make BIG money he should him.

Just goes to show he thinks he should get another title shot regardless of the fact that he is shot, hasn't beaten anyone decent in years and doesn't deserve to fight for a world title.

The fact he is even contemplating fighting Tyson just sums up that its all about the money. Tyson would get beaten by almost any half decent fighter nowadays, he is so shot its not even funny. I have no desire to see either man in the ring again, and certainly not fighting each other !!!

I can't believe many would pay to see Holyfield get brutalised by Wlad. He isn't a draw any longer.
