The 48-year-old American, who has won the world heavyweight title four times, last fought in April when he beat South Africa's Francois Botha in Las Vegas to win the World Boxing Federation's heavyweight title.
"My goal now is to win world championship again before letting go," explained Holyfield, famous for having a slice of his ear bitten off by Mike Tyson during their world title rematch bout in 1997.
The WBF fight against the 45-year-old Dane is scheduled for March 5, 2011 in Copenhagen in what will be Holyfield's 56th professional fight.
"If I can fight my fight, I can win," said Holyfield.
