Former heavy weight champion Evander Holyfield will face another heavy weight, but not inside the squared circle but in politics, former presidential candidate Mitt Romney.
Time reported that the two will face off on May 15 for a charity event for the Charity Vision, a group that the Romney family has been supporting for the past decades. According to Romney, he said that the fight will only go two ways, either it is going to be a very short fight or he will be knocked out senseless. He also added that it won't be much of a fight but rather a spar between the heavyweights of different worlds.
Romney, 68, has been travelling with the group to gather funds and increase awareness with regards to vision. The former GOP presidential candidate had just travel to India and to Peru last year, according to ABC News. The charity has donated medical equipment to doctors and hospitals in poor areas around the world.
Josh Romney, one of the former governor's sons, told the news that it will be a black tie event and will be patterned after the 1920s fashion. The younger Romney added that they have thought that the event will be better to produce and offer this kind of entertainment instead of the traditional dinner with invited speakers.
Romney is a former Massachusetts governor who tried to get the country's highest position twice. His first attempt was in was in 2008 but he lost the nomination against John McCain. He again tried and succeeded to get the votes to run for president in 2012 but lost to current president Barrack Obama. He also showed his interest to run again on the 2016 presidential election.
