What's your favorite Evander Holyfield performance/fight? - Page 2

The Surgeon

1. Qawi 1! Just such a GREAT fight, one of my very favs

2. Bowe 1, another classic war

3. Cooper, total tear up

IMO, Holyfield vs. Tyson I is underrated. I loved his first fight with Qawi too. Holyfield vs. Bowe I....ROUND 10!

Am I the only one not crazy about the first Tyson fight? Was it amazing live or something? I have the fight recorded from my uncle, and I watched it. It was more a great upset than a great fight IMO ....

Yea, I hear you. I know you remember Tuesday Night fights on USA. Did Jones Jr fight Vinny Paz (another friend of my old dude) on Tuesday Night Fights or am I off? That fight just popped into my head, helluva performance by Jones Jr BTW.

i dont recall that one being on TNF but yea, i still think of that show from time to time...Sean O'Grady used to piss me off back then but i miss his captain obvious tips-to-win-the-fight

The first Bowe fight - not simply because it was arguably the greatest heavyweight contest in history,but because the significantly smaller Holyfield went twelve rounds in the trenches,engaged in a furious inside battle,against the much larger,younger Bowe,who also happened to be a tremendous inside fighter in his own right,and he more than held his own,even overcoming what looked to be an inevitable stoppage in the 10th round to finish that round on top.

Iron chin and an iron will - don't make em' like him anymore.

Michael Dokes. A modern classic and Holyfields litmus test as the real deal at heavyweight.

Either Bowe 3(even though he lost) or Qawi 2
