After a decade, Evander Holyfield will return to the ring and take on Vitor Belfort, a fight that many had predicted to be an exhibition. However, ‘The Real Deal’ will reportedly be ready for a professional clash against his opponent, who is a former UFC champion and 14 years younger than him.
The event will happen at the Staples Center on September 11, with a stacked card on the display. Besides, the Triller stage will also host several celebrity performances and guest appearances. However, all of it wouldn’t take away the professional essence of boxing.
