After various delays and financial disputes with a different promotional company, the Evander Holyfield vs. Frans Botha heavyweight clash has found itself a new home and new date. The 12-round fight will now take place at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas on April 10 and is being promoted by Crown Boxing.
Holyfield has been out of action since December 2008 after losing a controversial decision to then WBA titlist Nicolai Valuev in Switzerland. Botha on the other hand last fought in May of last year, earning a decision win over Timo Hoffman.
