Holyfield vs. Vitor Belfort Time

The main event was supposed to see another legendary boxer in the ring facing off against ex-UFC champion Belfort, but 48-year-old Oscar De La Hoya contracted COVID-19 earlier this month and had to withdraw from the match. The match was supposed to be De La Hoya’s comeback, as he retired in 2009.

Replacing De La Hoya is the 58-year-old Evander Holyfield, who will be fighting the 44-year-old Belfort after 10 years since his last boxing match — a victory in 2011 against Brian Nielsen. The event was initially supposed to take place at Staples Center in Los Angeles, but it was moved to Florida as the California State Athletic Commission refused to license Holyfield. It remains unclear if the match will appear on each fighter’s professional boxing record, or if it will be treated as an exhibition.

The fight, however, will still be scored like a professional fight that will follow the official rules. There will be eight rounds of 2 minutes each though, compared with the traditional 10 or 12 rounds of 3 minutes each. Holyfield vs Belfort is expected to start at 7 PM PT.

The Undercards

Before you’re able to watch Holyfield vs. Belfort, you’ll be treated to a trio of undercard fights that should get you ready for the rush of the main event. If you’ve gone through the trouble of securing your slot in a Holyfield vs. Belfort live stream, you might as well make the most of it and enjoy all the matches in the event, which starts at 4 PM PT.

The first fight of the event is a 130-pound match between Andy Vences and Jono Carroll, followed by former heavyweight and cruiserweight champion David Haye coming out of retirement to touch gloves with part-time boxer Joe Fournier.

UFC legends Anderson Silva and Tito Ortiz will then meet outside of the Octagon. Silva comes from a win against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. this summer, while this will be Ortiz’s boxing debut.

Commentary From Trump

Donald Trump is no stranger to combat sports, as his hotels and casinos have hosted numerous major boxing events. He will be joined by his son, Donald Trump Jr., in providing commentary for all four fights of the evening. However, if you prefer regular commentary, you choose to go with the coverage of Jim Lampley and Shawn Porter.

Cigar Lounge Spotlight: Española Cigar Bar & Lounge in Miami Beach
cigar lounge

I was at Española Cigar Bar & Lounge in Miami Beach earlier this year when the idea for this weekly spotlight first came to mind. I was in town to interview Floyd Mayweather Jr. at a yacht party that turned out to be as bombastic as the 15-time world champion himself. The trip kicked off with dinner at Claudie for a taste of the French Riviera. I was whisked into the restaurant’s private dining room, where guests included a slew of GNC executives, former NBA players, and Oscar winner Cuba Gooding Jr.

After five or so Old Fashioneds, three of us decided to keep the night going, and we were all in the mood for stogies, which is always a great idea during one of Miami’s muggy nights. Española Cigar Bar & Lounge was the place to be, and if you’ve ever walked Española Way on a Friday night, you understand why.

Feeling stuck or behind? Here are the five days you need to schedule every month
HIker standing in the sunrise

It feels like every single month, when the calendar turns over (figuratively speaking, unless you still have a physical calendar), there is no way it is already the first of a new month. It can feel like you are stuck in the middle of a grind, that you are behind on everything, and no matter how hard you try, you can’t catch up. Or even move forward. That can weigh on you. Just like a new year creates new motivations, new planning, and new goals, you can break the months into smaller scales.

Your monthly calendar (and even further, going to the week) should reflect the things you want to accomplish. And, if you are feeling stuck, unmotivated, or like you are falling behind, here are five non-negotiable days you should set up every single month to set you up for climbing out of your funk.

On the anniversary of “Dr. No,” here is every EON Bond movie ranked
James Bond at a casino

International James Bond Day is here, and we have been putting all our time and focus into honoring our favorite double-0 with multiple launches, a watch and a book, his best looks, and a ranking of the men who have portrayed 007 across the last sixty years. Today, on the anniversary of Dr. No (the first mission to hit the theaters), we look back at all 25 films under the EON banner (no parodies or spin-offs here) and give you our definitive ranking of every 007 adventure. Some will surprise you, some will not. But all of these are a good time.

Apart from the fact that he wears the same clothes that I wear, he and I really have little in common. I do rather envy him his blondes and his efficiency, but I can’t say I much like the chap. – Ian Fleming
