major comeback. ” So, in obedience to the Holy Spirit, I

spoke to the congregation, not realizing the man

standing in front of me was Evander’s personal trainer,

Tim Hallmark.

After the service, Tim called Evander and told

him about the prophecy. Evander asked if I would call

and talk to him about the prophetic word. He then told

me about his three consecutive losses. The conversation

ended with him asking if I would help him make the

comeback. I agreed and sat ringside in Dallas, Texas as

he began his comeback journey. During the next few

years, I became a spiritual father to Evander, served as

Chaplain of Real Deal Events, helped him write his book

“ Becoming Holyfield” and hosted him as he spoke in

several local churches. He took me to the Super Bowl in

Phoenix on my 63 rd birthday. Evander’s string of four

consecutive wins brought him another opportunity to

box for the heavyweight title where I sat ringside in

Moscow, Russia.
