So why do I like Evander?

A Time of Limbo

The first time I heard of Evander Holyfield, he was fighting 'Buster' Douglas for the title. When I first saw Holyfield, I didn't like him. Now that I think back, I guess the only reason I didn't like him was that, he wasn't Mike Tyson. I felt the tile shot should’ve been Tyson's. I don't think I would've liked anyone who fought for the title if it wasn't Tyson. When Holyfield beat Douglas I was upset. I wanted Tyson to win the belt back from Douglas, not some other guy who came in and beat him. I knew Douglas won the title on a fluke, and I wantred Tyson to show hime what's up. As I viewed it, this was a bad time for boxing, because the 'real' champion didn't have his belt. All I wanted was for Tyson to have his title back. I didn't care how or who he had to beat to do it (although I wanted him to beat Douglas.)
