Russia's Nikolai Valuev claimed a majority points decision to retain his WBA heavyweight crown and defeat veteran American, Evander Holyfeild.

Holyfield 46 was aiming to become the oldest heavyweight Champion in history but was well beaten by Valuev in Switzerland. Valuev now holds a 50-1 record with 34 KO while Holyfield’s 24-year-old boxing career looks to be over.

The two judges had the fight 116-112 and 115-114 with the other in favour of Holyfield. Holyfield said he was disappointed with his performance.
