Evander Holyfield's son Evan scores crazy 16-second KO on pro debut

Evan Holyfield won his professional debut in a blisteringly fast first-round knockout in a fight that lasted just 16 seconds!

On the undercard of Canelo-Kovalev, Evan Holyfield came out firing in frenetic fashion, which proved effective as he blasted Nick Winstead away within 16 insane seconds.

His father famously became an undisputed cruiserweight champion before moving up to heavyweight and defeating Buster Douglas to become a heavyweight world champion in 1990. 'The Real Deal' went on to put away heavyweight legends George Foreman and Larry Holmes before his first defeat in the blue-ribbon division to Riddick Bowe in 1992. He gained revenge over the unbeaten 'Big Daddy' Bowe a year later in 1993 to narrowly claim back his two of his heavyweight world titles - the WBA and IBF, but the WBC belt he had previously lost was then held by Briton Lennox Lewis.

The Georgian retired with a record of 44-10-2.

Now the next generation, Evan, aims to continue the family legend.
