This is the first loss in the pro boxing career of Evan. He was 9-0 going into his bout with McDonald. The result came as a big surprise owing to McDonald’s journeyman record of 6-5 going into the clash.

Holyfield was a massive -10,000 betting favorite going into the fight with McDonald. Very early in the fight, McDonald connected with a clean overhand right over Evan’s jab, that shook him completely. Evan wasn’t even allowed to beat the 10-count as the referee felt that by eight, he didn’t have a chance in the fight.
