WATCH: Mitt Romney Gets in the Ring with Evander Holyfield

So Mitt Romney and Evander Holyfield ended up in the ring together last night, and there are really no words to describe it.

First off, for background: Romney and Holyfield got in the ring in Salt Lake City to raise money for CharityVision, a nonprofit focused on helping people worldwide regain their sight.

Things kicked off with MC Mario Lopez (yes, the Mario Lopez you’re thinking of), and Ann Romney was there to fully support her husband:

And because that’s all you’re hoping for right now, here are some highlights of the actual fight. Yes, below you can actually see Mitt Romney and Evander Holyfield boxing each other.
