COPENHAGEN, Denmark – Former heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield stopped Denmark's Brian Nielsen on a technical knockout in the 10th round Saturday night.
In the 10th round, the 48-year-old Holyfield pressed Nielson in the corner and the bout was halted after Holyfield landed several jabs in the corner and the Dane spat out some *****. Nielsen said after the bout he was hit by Holyfield's headbutts.
"My goal still is to be the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world," Holyfield said. "This fight showed other champions what I am able to do, but it also taught me I got to be better. The most important is that I didn't quit. I am not quitter."
The Danes ought to be embarrassed. You'd think Evander would have needed help from the Dutch or something to win being that he's 48.
