The second generation boxing, the hope of Evan “Yung Holy” Holyfield returned-and this time, with a completely up-to-date repaired heart and renovated goal.

The son of the legendary former world champion in two importance Evander Holyfield will pass through the ropes on Saturday, August 2, in Targowa in Nashville, Tennessee, as part of the card “Mayhem in Music City 2” by Christa Martin.

Holyfield (12-1, 8 KO) will face a hefty veteran St. Louis, Jeremiah Robinson (8-5, 8 KO) in a six-time clash with a super welcome, which means his second performance for over two years-and his first since surgery on an open heart in emergency in 2023.

Brave return of Evan Holyfield after heart surgery

“I always knew I had a heart,” said Holyfield. “My heart has been in boxing since I was 12 years elderly, but now I have a perfect heart and I feel that he will take me to the top. I think that people who see that I am fighting on Saturday will see that I will bring a lot of chaos to my opponent.”

Holyfield life -threatening condition required immediate surgical correction. Scarce innate defects affect one percent of the population and can be fatal if it is not treated.

The 27-year-old, now fully cleaned, to take part, the 27-year-old returned under the guidance of coach Atlant “Sugar” Bert Wells, who is convinced that the return will prove to be a success.

“Evan knows how to fight,” said Wells. “And well Evan will go all the way if he focuses.”

Holyfield is managed by Mike Joyce, a boxing lawyer in Chicago and Muhammad Ali’s son -in -law. Joyce believes that “Yung Holy” transfers spirit and pedigree to reach the top.

“Evan has this Holyfield blood line,” Joyce said. “He is athletic, difficult and difficult -working. His style creates invigorating fights and that’s why Christy Martin wants him in this program.”

A hazardous turn in chaos in Music City 2

Christa Martin, the Hall of Fame icon herself, praised Holyfield’s return – but she explained that the test on Saturday was not Walkover.

“Evan Holyfield always organizes a great program for fans and I am glad that I see him back and healthier than ever,” said Martin.

“He will have to face an opponent who knocked out every opponent he beat, so it will be a hazardous fight to take his return so quickly.”

Tickets on “Mayhem in Music City 2” start from $ 60.70 (including fees and tax) via Eventbrite. The card will be broadcast live on millions of Pay-Per-View, with Victor “Jalapeño” Hernandez (14-0, 12 KO) fighting with Jayvon “Elegido” Garnett (10-2, 5 Kos) for the main Naba Championships and the younger NAPF Piór.

In the case of Evan Holyfield, the journey continues this time, having only a immaculate sky and a immaculate health card.
