I would say holyfield would beat klitch. cause he just kept comin at fighters throwin bombs at them he had some vicious hooks and uppercuts..he had some fights with some much action .. the foreman, bert cooper , micheal tucker , etc... fights were all good.. he definitely was a warrior..

Holyfield. Wladimir Klitschko is a fraud and only Klit Lickers would say otherwise.

Holyfield would beat both Klitschko's. He has beaten better fighters and you can't use the "Klits are way too big" argument because Holyfield has overcome size troughout his career.

I bet ya if Holy was around before the 70s he would be considered 'too small' for these guys.

Evander would win it.

Holyfield is an ATG he would beat both klitschko's convincingly.

Klitchko got beat up by an out of shape Lewis, Holyfield went 12 rounds with Lewis and he wasn't even in his prime.

hmm a prime holyfield was at crusierwieght not heavy and i do think he wud struggle against the klitschkos at heavy because holyfield wasnt in his prime at heavywieght.

holyfield in another class

Holyfield was an all time great Heavyweight in the early 90s. Watch some of his best performances there, I would say he peaked around the Bowe trilogy, although those brutal bouts took a lot out of him.

the fact is holyfield was a warrior...I wouldve put my money anytime on him in the early 90s cause he was that good..he would hit people with some hard shots...I use to like it when he would get hit and just try and hit even harder or when he just catches like a burst of energy where he throws everything out...

cmon man...Holyfield had the killer instinct, the power, and the chin to stop any of the current top 10 heavyweights.

Easily prime Holyfield. Not even close.

Holyfield had trouble with guys 6'4" and above like Riddick Bowe and Lennox Lewis. Even a 42 year old Larry Holmes hung in there with Evander. I'm still on the fence on this one and it depends on which Wlad he's fighting, the older, more careful one or the younger, careless one.

I think Holyfield would have gotten to Klitschko eventually, I think Klitschko would be using his jab smartly for the first few rounds but Holyfield would have caught up to him late in the fight. Holyfield by late TKO.

the steroid dealers would win as holyfield would make rich men out of them!

This is how I have it. Holy is my favorite fighter of all-time but he hated big guys with effective jab (see the Bowe and Lewis fights) and lost to these fighters clearly. And now he would be fighting a better jabber than both. That being said, I will have Holy winning by TKO in the 10th, but the scorecards will have Wlad ahead. Wlad's chin will be in play and the ref would come in to the stop the barrage of punches Holy would land.

Easily prime Holyfield. Not even close.

Sums up my thoughts.

I think Wlad may cause problems early with his jab but ultimatly Holyfield would win imo.

The Real Deal

Wlad is a slow starter now and that would play into Holyfields hands. Holyfield would have trouble with the jab but he could adapt like in the 2nd lewis and 2nd bowe fights. Holyfield late KO.

Evander TKO...Klit would be a bloody mess.

This isn't even a question. Holyfield duked it out with bowe, and foreman. Klitschko has been beaten and put down by journeyman. In a weaker division then when holyfield was dominating.

Evander. He is a skilled volume puncher and thats the wrong style for the Klitschko's, they are very stiff and Holyfield would force them to fight off the back foot , which they were not comfortable doing. He would come in with that tight defense and combination punching and they needed their room to box. Evander would TKO Wladimir late and decision Vitali.

I agree with what u sayin.. but I think he could knockout both..

I'm seeing UD for Holyfield.

Holyfield is like what 45 (and washed up) ? and he can still bang with the best.

In his Prime he decisions Klistchko by a wide UD.

I just watched the 2nd Bowe fight its amazing how good a combo puncher Holyfield was in his prime.

Holyfield decisions Vitali and TKO's Wlad. I can't see Holyfield knocking either of them down or 10-counting them out but his superior speed and combination punching carry him to easy decision / stoppage. Maybe he gets stunned once or twice by desparate Vitali in the late rounds but would win a wide UD. He likely stops an exhausted Wlad somewhere between 9 and 11 after pushing him hard for much of the fight.

Holyfield has proved more at this stage.

Though seemingly more capable since the Brewster melt down, I'm still not comletely convinced of Wlad's stamina or poise under fire.

Wlad certainly has the tools to beat Holyfield with his sharp powerful jab and right cross, his troubling size, and cautious clinching in close quarters.

Wlad vs. Byrd II

Holyfield will have to work around the jab, avoid the clinch, and get to Wlad on the inside with quick counters.

Holyfield vs. Bowe II


I think I would go with a hard fought decision from Holyfield. Wlad simply has two many question marks that I'm curious about to favor him but it would be a tough fight for Evander regardless when or how it ends. Wlad won't trade and bang, so Holyfield will have to stick and move like he did in the early rounds of Bowe II to be his most effective.

The Real Deal would take it By UD.
