They hugged at the end which was cool. They were both finished with their careers and knew it was their last professional fight.

Your dead on.

Evander is 58

@@fw2965 in this fight he was around 48 Einstein

True

He was probably really tired to finish it.

Well, 13 years later and Holyfield is about to fight.

I mean 10

@@3jacksonderek But I don't think is going to be a real fight. Probably just an exibition, just like Tysons.

@@hanksh7285 I think Holyfield will keep it exhibition but if Vitor decides that he wants to make it a "real fight," then Holyfield will show him the "real deal."

@@TruthHurtzandHealz It has already been confirmed that is not gonna be an exibition, is gonna be a real professional fight, but still I don't believe Victor is gonna be full on Holyfield, he's too old.

Real deal is is the best.

Thats what I thought at their age Evande didn't want to hurt him he showed a lot of respect and class at all times to his opponent,just hope they got a good pay day out of it.

brian nielsen had not even played for 10 years, he was legit 45, and still tanked evanders hits, that just shows that your african daddy isnt even that strong

Black athletes also look younger and crisper than white ones too...lol

@@chrismartinez5350 IT'S THE MELANIN AND COLLAGEN IN BLACK PEOPLES SKIN THAT MAKES THEM LOOK YOUNGER AND AGE WELL .BUT THERE AIN'T NO BEATING FATHER TIME. HIS HAND WERE SLOW, AND HIS PUNCHES WEREN'T CRISP AND ACCURATE. GREAT FIGHTERS ALWAYS STAY TOO LONG AND THEY WIND UP GETTING HURT SOME EXAMPLES MUHAMMAD ALI. JERRY QUARRY. GREG PAGE MELDRICK TAYLOR. TERRY NORRIS AND MOST RECENTLY. ZAB JUDA, WHO'S LAST FIGHT PUT HIM IN THE HOSPITAL WITH A BRAIN HEMORRHAGE. IF YOU WANT TO SEE WHAT STAYING TOO LONG CAN DO? PULL UP WILFREDO BENITEZ ON RU-vid, AND SEE THE CONDITION HE'S IN. IT'S ENOUGH TO BRING TEARS TO YOUR EYES. HE WAS SO GREAT. AND NOW TO SEE HIM A VEGETABLE IS SO SAD.

@@jameshowell6160 i hear and see it long term fight exposure has its consequences

Nielsen was 46 or 47 at the time. Holyfield 48. Both knew it would be their last time in the ring. Exception was George Foreman who became the champ at 45 years old.

its because they recieve so many punches trough the years

NEILSON had an 11 year lay off before the HOLYFIELD fight. And how was HOLYFIELD King of the era ??,,,,,,,,, he lost to BOWE, LEWIS, MOORER, RUIZ, TONEY & BYRD ........ And he was at his STEROID PEAK vs TYSON ..

They absolutely robbed a 47 year old Holmes. I don't know a single person who watched that fight that scored it for Nielsen. But yeah, props to Nielsen, a tough old codger himself.

The 3 “only” defeast are against real boxers 😂 The rest of his fights are against 🤡

BLACKS DONT CRACK

He got the body of a plus 55 yrs

Hp top.

Nicolaj Thiim Holyfield wasn't tired, Nielson was, he couldn't do anything but lay on the ropes.

Meh, I disagree though.

Nicolaj Thiim There's no disagreeing, just watch the video. Holyfield wasn't the one staggering and falling down.

Yes there is :).

Nicolaj Thiim Good argument, you fought about as poor as Nielsen.

Head butting since 1985

Never a point reducted for headbutting so fuckoff haters.

9 year layoff.

@@Channel-gp6st Yep, youre correct , but thats still an EXTREMELY long layoff, lol..... Holyfield may have been washed, but NIELSEN was SUPER WASHED, LMAO

Mi. Aa liu.

He knocked Larry Holmes out a few others world champ Boxer's. Father was telling me a had strokes heart problems.

Boksede han så mange surpriced - herlig karakter friskt gåpåmod .

Hahahahahahahahahhahhahshahshsh

Man kan sige hvad man vil -han fremviste altid et godt humør -ham kunne man kun holde af .

BN stood up to EH, a superior fighter, because of his ring skills. Essentially, EH outfought BN.

you dont need talent when you can fcking tank hits from the hardest hitter in boxing.

@aticus aticus Nobody cares about your "respect."

@@suzimajor9532 looking closely at your reply i wonder how you could possibly say such a thing. you state - "nobody cares about my respect" for evander holyfield. well "nobody"? so you speak for everyone? what a presumtuous attitude you have. you have nothing of worth to say only to detract from my comments. may i suggest that in future you think before you speak and then you wont look so stupid and peevish. keep well and stay safe :)

@@aticusaticus9138 YOU are the one being "presumtuous"and stupid. WHY would the great EVANDER HOLYFIELD give a whit about YOUR respect?!

@@suzimajor9532 another abusive reply from you. incidentally, i think you mean shit not whit. well you ask why would evander holyfield give a whit? about my respect for him. i ask you why wouldn`t he? obviously from the manner in which you conduct yourself it is obvious that "respect" is not part of your mindset or being. it`s also worthy of note that your reply uses the very same words/phrases that i sent to you. if you want me to continue reading your verbal diatribe then please try and be more interesting.

@@aticusaticus9138 ACTUALLY, I did mean "whit".I dont use profanity, as YOU apparently do. WHIT, as defined by webster, means "a very small part or amount." So AGAIN I ask, why would a man as great and as accomplished as EVANDER HOLYFIELD give a WHIT about how someone like YOU felt about him, one way or another? I have a REAL man beckoning me to come to bed now. Im bored with this..

it was in Denmark so obviously

he should fight lesly neilson would be close

​@@rimaman8681😂😂😂

HOLYFIELD ALSO IS KNOWN FOR HIS GRANITE CHIN. DONT FORGET, HE ALWAYS FOUGHT GUYS WHO WERE 25 TO 35 POUNDS HEAVIER THAN HE WAS.. RIDDICK BOE. LENOX LEWIS. GEORGE FOREMAN. BUSTER DOUGLAS TO NAME A FEW. AND ALL DEVASTATING PUNCHERS.

wow youre a star

I think that's great. You should be proud. These other idiots that replied, you should ignore....

Looks a possibility

Great punching bag

It's all about reflexes . Tyson is so strong that he can keep an opponent by just pounding the body. But holyfields style is counter punching by in and out movement. he's lost speed to rob movement and doesn't have the quickness to respond to openings

@@cam514 tyson looks pretty fast still

@@teovu5557 Tyson is much quicker than Evander today . Evander should not fight. Tyson either tho. It will never be again, what we know them for

​@@cam514Holy is a strong boxer as well. He manhandled Tyson in their first fight.

no i think he was still good, he had many good bout in his 40's

L

This was a decent fight. These guys still want to work and get paid just like the rest of us.

Wait until 5 years from your post

bro how biased can u be, the only reason brian gave up was bc mike pussy tactic made brians vision so limited so he was forced to stop, and that just shows how ez it was for brian and brian was so rusty at the time. it just shows that brian just was better.

Yourself maybe haha i think so

I always thought "Great Dane" would've been a better nickname for him 🤭

Brian had be away for 9 years not so bad som jeg havde forventet.

In a danish context he was. We loved him because he was overweight and funny. The underdog......

@@Skovgaard1975 Der ikke nogen som ham - altid underholdende var han og det tæller da osse noget selv om man ikke vinder .- bare det at gå 11 omgange .

@@kunklynk1916 Enig! Jeg elskede at se hans kampe sammen med en ven. Det var tider!

@@Skovgaard1975 Enig -mener det imod Tyson han lavede sin bamsedans og gøre i parader , var ikke nogt han gjorde meget i men tog de slag , der måtte komme og gjorde ham blot mere vred sådanne set .

He did.

+Hamza Khaliq no

Christina Thomas Deadass B

True...He reached 50-0 before the tyson fight and he didnt do bad at all against tyson either. He shouldve fought butterbean because if he beat a big named puncher like him he mightve actually got some of the respect he deserved

metal shadow the hedgehog The guy did beat some very good opponents as well like Tim Witherspoon, Bonecrusher Smith, Tony Tubbs, Larry Holmes, Carlos De Leon. And he defended his IBO world title belt 25 times. He was definitely one of the most underrated heavyweights of all time. And if an old Larry Holmes can beat Butterbean then Nielsen would have easily beaten him.

True. Holmes was still in 1997 a very difficult fight. Brian was much faster back then if you compare him against Tyson in 2001. The fight is here on RU-vid. Brian was never in really good shape but he was quite fast in the middle of the 90s, and very very hard to beat. And he won the bronze medal at the olympics in 1992. So of course he had the skills.

Showboating and taking a beating very few can do that

that jab he tried hitting holyfeild with when against the corner missed by about 3 seconds and 4 feet

8.51 neilsen has a unique block with his face

9.56 neilsen looks like hes brushing spider webs off holyfeild

neilsen vs botha is a closer match up or both of them vs holyfeild

What fat with no jab?

PSE shut the fuck up. Fuck have you EVER done? Nothing? Thought so

@@bloodtimemaximusfullthrott226 About a nine on the tension scale.....

🤣🤣🤣

Yes no doubt but even Brian was already beaten he was motivated to the ever last .

Hes not headbutting,he goes low with hes head,it costed to go inside with Holyfield,great style.

@@nicklasandersson5606 Thanks for defining what a headbutt is :)

1. brian Nielsen 2. Ali 3. George Forman

Ali is by far the greatest, not only by his prowess in the ring but outside the ring is the most relevant sportsman in boxing. he managed to stop an unrelenting force of nature that was Foreman, but he did it with smarts. Intelligence beating raw strength

I never even discuss boxing with anyone who have Tyson no 1,because they just showed that they know exactly zero about boxing.

Ali is he greatest of the heawys,pound for pound hes maybe 5-6

Tyson, Lewis or Vitali, hmmmm
