Mitt Romney and Evander Holyfield weighed in for their charity boxing match on Thursday night, with the former Massachusetts governor predicting a similar outcome to that of the 2012 presidential election, which he lost to Barack Obama. The 68-year-old Romney was scheduled to fight the five-time world heavyweight champion, who is 52, first on a Friday fight night card to benefit CharityVision, which helps doctors in developing countries treat curable blindness. His son Josh is volunteer president of the organization, which hopes to raise $1,000,000. The rest of the bouts on the card feature genuine boxers. Speaking to the New York Times ahead of the weigh-in, Romney said the three-round fight in Salt Lake City, in which he and Holyfield will wear full protective gear, would be “a modest performance in more ways than one”.
