One of boxing’s greats Evander Holyfield recently had huge praise for ex-NFL star Brandon Marshall.

Speaking to TMZ Sports, Holyfield stated “I don’t know who’s gonna get in there with him. Because I’m saying, he intimidating. He’s a big guy, you already know he got big arms and stuff like that. He’s got good range.”

The Real Deal would elaborate further on Marshall’s boxing abilities. “Brandon, ya know, he looks good balance-wise. We weren’t really sparring but he got good balance and hey, he look like he could be a good fighter.”

Evander Holyfield would then compare Marshall to one of the biggest names in Heavyweight boxing today. “[Brandon] pretty much got the same reach as the heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder. He got that reach just like that, but he got trunks. He got them big arms. You know he hit somebody with one of them, you know what? He ain’t got to hit ’em right. Maybe if he miss? They still may fall.”

Brandon Marshall has in the past calling out the likes of Anthony Joshua. “I’m about to do the unthinkable” Brandon Marshall stated on Instagram back in October 2019. “13 years in the NFL, 35 and in great shape, I just went 24 rounds, I’m about to do the unthinkable. Heavyweight Champion of the world? Joshua, Ortiz, Fury, Wilder? Ya’ll can get it.”
