Holyfield lines up November bout
Evander Holyfield (R) is too strong for Jeremy Bates
Bates was pummeled by the veteran Holyfield last month
Evander Holyfield has announced that the next fight in his comeback will be against Puerto Rico's Fres Oquendo in San Antonio on 10 November.

Holyfield is hoping that a win will help him on his way towards an unprecedented fifth world title.

The 43-year-old former undisputed heavyweight champion said: "I want to reach my goal. And that goal is to become a world champion one more time.

"When I do, I'll sit down. Until then, I'm going to be in the battlefield."

Holyfield launched his comeback bid last month with a second-round stoppage of journeyman Jeremy Bates in Dallas.
