Hope this isn't a fata: http://www.cbc.ca/sports/story/2007/03/24/holyfield-calgary.html
Would anyone pay to see him fight in Calgary? He's washed up, no doubt about it. But a rare opportunity to watch one of the greats fight in Canada.

Not to often you get a guy that is that well known in the boxing community come to Calgary but no I will not fork over any money to see this guy. He's been finshed for a while now and this is just a sad plea to try and make more $$$

I'd fork over the money, but no more than $60.

If it had a solid undercard, with some up-and-coming Canadians, I would go. Troy Ross of Brampton just won the Commonwealth title yet nobody knows who he is. Bringing Holyfield to Calgary could be a great chance to showcase some good young Canadian fighters on the undercard, getting them the exposure they need.

I would fork over the cash for sure. He's past his prime but this is a four time world champion. "The Real Deal" Holyfield. This would probably be tons of fun.
