Holyfield, Williams fight ruled no-contest

This is why boxing is in such bad shape. A 48-year-old has been heavyweight champion fighting a guy who hadn't fought since 2009....on pay per view. Sadly there is a market for this kind of crap, still:
The 48-year-old Holyfield (43-10-2) was cut in the second round when Williams' head made contact just above Holyfield's left eye. The four-time heavyweight champion came out for the third round, and Williams (34-11-2) staggered him with several overhand punches. Before the fourth round could, the start the fight was stopped and rule a no-contest. Holyfield didn't protest the decision.
