Evander Holyfield-Sherman Williams - The Fight That Wouldn't Die!
Evander Holyfield-Sherman Williams - The Fight That Wouldn't Die!
By James Slater - Though in truth not too many fans were interested in seeing it happen in the first place, the on/off/on again fight between heavyweight legend Evander Holyfield and journeyman Sherman "The Tank" Williams has proven to be a very stubborn bout indeed. Twice (or was it three times?) the fight fell through, only for it to be back on yet again for January 22nd in West Virginia.
The fight will serve as a "tune-up" for the 48-year-old Holyfield's upcoming March fight against Danish hero Brian Nielsen. Amazingly, both bouts will be available on Pay-Per-View! If either fight does well in terms of TV sales, it will only be down to the fascination fans still have when it comes to great, or once great, heavyweights. And who is more of a fan-favourite than the once formidable "Real Deal?"
Even at his current age and after having had such a long and hard fighting career, the 43-10-2(28) Holyfield should be able to defeat both Williams and Nielsen - even if the near-50-year-old will be embarking on his most active three month spell in a very long time. Holyfield fought just once in 2008, not at all in 2009, and just once in 2010. Now, with 2011 approaching, the former four-time heavyweight ruler has a busy year ahead of him..
The Williams fight could well go the distance, seeing as how the 38-year-old who is 34-11-2(19) has been stopped just once as a pro. "Tank" is as durable as his nickname would suggest, no doubt, but can he upset Holyfield or will he go home with a 12th points loss added to his record? Unless "The Warrior" has gone back farther than we think he has, he should be the guy collecting a points win.
How much energy Evander will then be left with for his March 5th trip to Copenhagen, we can only guess. Williams, who holds a win over another faded former cruiserweight in Al "Ice" Cole, as well as a draw with the huge Jameel McCline, can punch some and he could make Holyfield work hard as a result.
At least Holyfield is being matched with fellow veterans these days. Williams is pushing 40 and he has been inactive since his October 2009 points loss to Manuel Charr; while Nielsen is 45-years-old and has been out of the ring since 2002! Needless to say, the prime Evander Holyfield would have wiped out both guys with some ease. But today? Though we don't really want to see how the future Hall of Famer will cope with a combo that is made up of an inactive journeyman and an even more inactive former contender, we are going to find out what happens early next year.
Holyfield, of course, insists he will fight for as long as it takes for him to become undisputed heavyweight champion again. 2011 promises (or threatens) to be some active year for the man who turned pro way back in 1984!
Redemption In America presented by ARK Promotions in association with The Greenbrier, will be distributed in North America by Integrated Sports Media for live viewing at 9 PM/ET 6 PM/PT on both cable and satellite pay per view via iN Demand, DIRECTV, Avail-TVN and DISH Network in the United States, as well as Viewer's Choice and Shaw PPV in Canada, for a suggested retail price of only $29.95.

What about the american sherman tank. Why did it finally prevail over the Germans even though the German tanks?
WERE BETTER???????????????
There are many reasons, the main reason being that the Allies, the US, Britain, Canada, The Free French and Poland had more tanks on the western front around 30,000 Shermans were built not to mention all the other types of tanks that the Allies were using where the German tank numbers were far lower the German heavies only numbered 1700 and that was over 3 fronts. Even the German best medium tank was 6000 in total. Generally when the Germans lost a tank it was very difficult to replace however the Shermans which the US, Britain, Canada, The Free French and Poland used were in great supply and easy to repair. German tanks were also over engineered and the germans had many different types of tanks which made the repair difficult. The Germans had also many tank destroyers with out turrets, the gun was in the hull. They were cheaper and faster to build but did not do well in tank on tank battles.
Added to this the Germans were also engaged on the Eastern Front and had to supply both fronts with tanks with an industry that was being hit from the air. Not only were the factories being hit but so were the major rail yards for transporting the tanks and supplies to the front. Adding to the supply of tanks, fuel was a challenge because it was not plentiful near the end of 1944 / 45. The Germans would only have the ability to drive short distances and had to use the rail damaged network to get their tanks to the front. Where the Allies could drive their tanks if the rails were damaged or in use. From the Battle of the Bulge to the end of the war German tank units were rarely at full strength. Many being down to 50%. The Germans had another problem with their materials in the manufacturing of their tanks some of the raw materials had to be improvised and manipulated due to shortages so they ended up with armour that was brittle and not as protective as it was in the past.
Training was also an issue, many of the German experienced veterans had been killed on the Eastern Front, in Italy, and Normandy so the Germans were having to use conscripts and poorly trained soldiers to fill the ranks at the last minute. Near the end of the war the recruits with little training were picking up their tanks at the factory with little or no training. Where the Allies were still training crews to a decent level and still had many veterans in their ranks.
One other issue that the German tankers had was not having air superiority. The allies did major damage to the German tank force on clear days so they often had to stay hidden which turned them into more of a mobile bunker then an effective tank force.
Another point is that the allies had some vehicle and guns in small numbers that could go against the German heavy tanks, the US employed a 90 mm gun on some of its tank destroyers (a heavy gun on a Sherman chassis with an open turret with over 1,400 built and the British / Canadians had a 17 pounder gun which was also comparable to large 88 mm german guns. This was an up armed British Sheman and over 2000 of these were built. These up gunned Shermans and tank destroyers held their own against the German heavies. Some of the Shermans like the Jumbo was upgraded with thick armour.
Simply put, easy to repair and large numbers with the use of air power trumps a big gun and thick armour.
