Its close, almost too close to call. Today's Vitali is no Rid**** Bowe, but the 1996 Holyfield wasn't the same guy who KO'd Buster Douglas and decisioned Foreman.

I shade Holyfield here by a whisker, he did look good against Lewis in the return in what, late 1999 and he was a little fresher than that back in 1996.
