Outside of the boxing ring, he’s an electrician named Jurmain McDonald and he knocked out the son of Evander Holyfield, Evan Holyfield. After suffering a knockout to Jurmain, Evan hopped on Twitter and spoke about the terrible loss.
He said;
“Blessed to be in good health, and that was a good shot, no cap! Hope I didn’t disappoint too many folk, but I promise I’ll make up for it. Definitely still have my sights on being world champion!”
The New York Post has got details;
Evan Holyfield did not look like The Real Deal on Saturday.
Holyfield, the son of boxing legend Evander Holyfield, took the first loss of his career at TrillerVerz 5, a stunning knockout defeat to Jurmain McDonald, who is an electrician in his day job, according to Yahoo Sports. The 24-year-old Holyfield is now 9-1.
McDonald capitalized on a lackluster Holyfield jab attempt by connecting with an overhand right to send Holyfield to the canvas.
McDonald, 32, was 6-5 before his massive upset. Holyfield was a -10000 favorite at some sportsbooks, according to Yahoo Sports. Haymakers TV said after the fight McDonald said he had to go to work on Monday for his electrician job.
Holyfield, a light middleweight, began his professional boxing career in 2019.
The good is that it is early in Evan’s career so he can come back from it. The bad news is one thing you have to find out quickly about any fighter does he have a good chin on not. It doesn’t matter how good he is if he can’t take a punch that is going to be a problem. Evan’s father, Evander had a hell of a chin, you would have almost beat him to death to knock him down. It doesn’t look like Evan inherited that.
