    Roy Jones is #1 Whitaker and Lewis are definitely top 10 Hamed probable is too. Tyson isn't even in the discussion. Holyfield is right there with Eubank for the 90s

      Holyfields resume is way better than Eubank, its not even close in my opinion.

        His overall resume is much better but I am talking about just the 90s

          i hope someone with a good grasp about his exploits gives us a schooling about this forgotten fighter...
          I mention him in every "Who should be in the HOF" as my first pick.

          Who calls him overrated? I can't fathom the idea of that.

          And I made a thread about him about a year ago.

              it's become abundantly clear.
              There's no doubt about that.

                    What are you talking about? Most of Holyfield's good work was done in the 90s. Tyson, Mercer, Moorer, Holmes, Foreman. Sure he beat Dokes and a couple of other big names in the 80s but the 90s made his legacy.

                      His entire run at cruiserweight was in the 80s.
