The WBA is reviewing Nikolai Valuev’s win over Evander Holyfield by majority decision in a 20 December heavyweight title bout.

The organisation says in a statement on its Web site that it has ordered a panel of judges to study the video of the fight. The WBA says it “always cares about and respects the fans’ and the media’s opinion.”

One judged scored the bout in Switzerland a draw while the others had Valuev winning 116-112 and 115-114. The 46-year-old Holyfield was attempting to become the oldest heavyweight to win a major belt. The 7-foot (2.14-meter) Valuev is the tallest and heaviest champion.
