In late July it was reported that Evan Holyfield, one of the sons of the legendary heavyweight Evander Holyfield plans to become a professional. "Young Holly" has learned the details of his first fight in the pro ranks.
On November 2 at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas Holyfield Jr. will face Nick Winstead (0-1). This fight will take place in the deep undercard of the evening of boxing, where in the main event Saul Alvarez will face Sergey Kovalev.
"I spent ten years in boxing, and it's time to move on to the next level. All these years in high school when my friends went to football and basketball training, every day I went to the boxing gym. I understand that it's time for me to pay back this dedication," Evan said a few weeks ago. He will begin his career at middleweight.
