 38°  Nation 3 Mitt Romney to fight Evander Holyfield in charity boxing event March 16, 2015 10:27 PM By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SALT LAKE CITY - Former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney and five-time heavyweight boxing champion Evander Holyfield are set to square off at a charity fight night event in May.
Romney's son Josh Romney confirmed to The Associated Press on Monday that his father will participate in the May 15 black-tie event in Salt Lake City.
In full protective gear, Mitt Romney and Holyfield will spar in the boxing ring for a lighthearted fight before the night's three fights by professional boxers.
The event is raising money for the Utah-based organization CharityVision, which helps doctors in developing countries perform surgeries to restore vision in people with curable blindness.

I speak for all Freepers when I say...
Wait, what?
Seems oddly familiar...
Too bad it’s not real. I’m sure many of us would like to punch Romney in the face.
HA-HA
That’s disturbing. He might as well go on Dancing With the Stars.
Please, please, please let Holyfield have a flashback to the Tyson fight.
Romney has never been very athletic.
“Despite the school’s rarefied air, it was still a high school, so the jocks tended to be the most popular. Mitt’s singular distinction as an athlete was an embarrassing one, classmates recall. He competed in a 2.5-mile race held during a football game, setting off with the rest of the runners at the start of halftime.
Everyone returned before the second half of the football game began, except Mitt. He didn’t resurface until about 10 minutes after the last runner. He staggered around the oval for the final lap, collapsing twice in the last 15 yards but drawing cheers from the crowd when he finally crossed the finish line. “It had to be one of those moments that made you feel good, but inadequate,” Bailey says. “But those kinds of things didn’t bother him.”
The RNC may have just found a way to raise big money for the party.
Conservatives might pay big big money to punch RINO’s!
He has a better chance beating Holyfield than a Democrat.
Jeb Bush would be dead within an hour. Come to think of it, so would Christie. Maybe we could all take a whack and Boehner, too.
“A fake half-battle involving Romney and a black guy.
Seems oddly familiar...”
Yes, yes, it does.
Mitt had better hit Holyfield with his wallet.
Are you kidding me? Regardless of the fact that this is a charity event, would-be politicians will do anything, absolutely anything to get into the public’s eye.
Ouch!
OMG..... disgusting Romney could bite his peter off..
Romney can be counted on to throw the contest Just like before
Attention whore ..
Romney showed us in the last election he had no fight game.
Willard has no fight GENES..
No Romneys since the family arrived in this country about 1840 have ever fought in the US military..
Willard himself is a TWO Time draft dodger..
