Anyone see it? I missed it =-(. From what I hear though Evender got outboxed. I think he is getting to old and has to much wear and tear on his body to be a contender anymore. But he will probley fight for 5 more years if he is going to make 5 mill a fight. The weak heaveyweight divsion is all that is keeping him around now.

He didn't look old to me. He was just outclassed. In the late rounds he was able to trap Byrd against the ropes, but Byrd's defensive skills were too much.

didn't see this fight. however, last time i saw evander get interviewed, i knew right then and there is was time for him to retire. this has nothing to do with his skill....the man is probably the most punch drunk fighter that is still active in the sport. 5 more years of boxing for him?...he'll be dead by then.

5 years ago Evander wins that fight hands down. No doubt in my mind. He is not what he was even in the second Tyson fight I thought he looked a little slow. Just a good thing there are alot of Heaveyweights not on the top of there game

I agree with Tarabos. He's well past it. I think he will only diminish his rep by getting smacked down by all the younger guys.

You'd think he would have made enough by now to retire and spend all the hard earned cash.

With all the wives divorces and kids I doubt that he has all that much money to his name. And the problem is as shot as he is he can still win in the division.

JLA is a good cartoon. Anyways if someone is putting 5 million in your face to do something that you have done all your life I doub many people would turn it down.
