Sherman Williams against Evander Holyfield Holyfield was contacted in the matter by a Danish paper and didn´t rule out a comeback under the right financial circumstances. Holyfield's last fight was in Denmark against Brian Nielsen back in 2011.

The official reason is weight problems - Eronen have mainly campaigned at featherweight and is viewed as too small for 130 lbs. ******************** EC Boxing have announced that IBF Int'l heavyweight champion Adrian Granat (14-0, 13ko) will defend the title March 18 at home in Malmoe, Sweden. As for opponent there are ongoing negotiations with Romanian Bogdan Dinu (16-0, 12ko). Per-Åke Persson
