Evander Holyfield

Former Heavyweight boxing champion Evander Holyfield gives exclusive access to Sport Today in Atlanta and talks about his great fights, money troubles and his sporting sons.

Boxer Evander Holyfield won the World Heavyweight title for the first time in 1990, and built up, and then lost, a huge personal fortune. He was involved in one of the most controversial sporting contests of all time, when Mike Tyson bit off part of his ear in 1997.
In this fly-on-the-wall documentary, Sport Today's Alex South gets up close and personal with Holyfield in Atlanta. He travels with him to visit two of his eleven children, who are forging their own sporting careers. And he hears the words of wisdom that has driven Holyfield all his life...from his mother.
