He's in Manchester tomorrow afternoon but you need to get a wristband from 9am from the Virgin Megastore (or whatever the hell it is called now!)

Come and meet a boxing legend!

Becoming Holyfield: A Fighter's Journey

WATERSTONE'S LIVERPOOL
Thursday, 6 March 2008, 12:00PM - 1:00PM

Due to unforeseen circumstances, Evander will be unable to sign copies of ‘Becoming Holyfield’. Fans will be able to meet Evander, and books purchased from the store on the day will contain a special signed limited edition bookplate. Due to time restraints only customers who purchase a copy will have the opportunity to meet Evander. Please arrive early to avoid disappointment.

You get a printed "limited edition" sticker bookplate. We went to see him this afternoon, after he'd been in Liverpool.

Felt a bit of a swizz really. Rushed in and out, no chance to speak to him or ask any questions, security taking the photos and mine was blurred but they wouldn't take another. He looked tired and / or fed up.

Still good to shake the big man's hand though

I bet nobody had the balls to complain.

[Red_Polo]

Isn't he planning on fighting Tyson again?

I certainly didn't!!! I thought Holyfield was a big fella til I saw his security!!

Isn't he planning on fighting Tyson again?

According to an interview yesterday, it's on for July this year.

I can see why Holyfield would want to prove once-and-for-all that he's the better fighter. He doesn't need the money.

Tyson just needs the money and the buzz. And the public attention / acclaim imo. Sad.

[Joe King]

Holyfield is a boring character. He was on Soccer AM. He made Andy Murray look exciting.

[garymac]

I don't think he's a great personality tbh. Add to that though, that he's punch drunk so doesn't like to talk too much in public.
