    actually the cooper fight was not surprising because cooper was a short notice opponent as the wbo champ(when wbo title was only a regional title like the nabf)francisco domiani pulled out of his fight with evander.cooper could really punch for a small heavyweight.anyone can get caught.holyfield recently stated his camp took dokes lightly & his cornermen duva & benton gave him wrong advice by saying dokes was on drugs & not in shape...holyfield said to his corner after the 10th round"dont you ever tell me hes done again"...dokes was a good fighter but very troubled outside the ring....im not sure if it would make a difference but leading up to their meeting the caliber of fights were night & day...tyson fought mcneeley,mathis jr.,seldon,& his fight with bruno.bruno was solid but was already thinking retirement & wanted 1 last big payday...holyfield's previous 5 were riddick bowe twice,moorer,mercer & the stay busy czyz fight.no comparison other then czyz...throw in foreman,holmes,stewart& the 1st bowe fight while tyson was in jail & you cansee who was ready for their fight & who wasnt...
