Evander Holyfield enters 'Celebrity Big Brother' house

Four-time world heavyweight boxing champion Evander Holyfield is among the 12 housemates to enter Celebrity Big Brother for the show's 13th series.

Four-time world heavyweight champion boxer Evander Holyfield has entered the Celebrity Big Brother house on launch night of the show's 13th series.

'The Real Deal' beat George Foreman and Buster Douglas in a career which is perhaps most famous for his bouts with Mike Tyson, both of which he won.

The second of their fights is best remembered for Tyson biting off the ear of Holyfield, who will be handcuffed to The Apprentice runner-up Luisa Zissman for the opening days of the Channel 5 reality favourite.

Holyfield is also joined in the house by Made in Chelsea's Ollie Locke, The Only Way is Essex star Sam Faiers, comedian Jim Davidson, N-Dubz rapper Dappy and Blue vocalist Lee Ryan.

Lionel Blair, Linda Nolan, Jasmine Waltz, Liz Jones and Casey Bachelor complete the original lineup for the latest edition of the long-running programme, which will be on air for three weeks.

Holyfield is 12/1 fifth favourite with SkyBet to win the series, with Ryan leading the market at 11/4.
