    Holyfield has the best resume in boxing.

    Take a look at who Holyfield has fought. Tillman, Qawi, Tillis, Thomas, Dokes, Stewart x2, Douglas, Foreman, Cooper, Holmes, Bowe x3, Moorer x2, Mercer, Tyson x2, Lewis x2, Ruiz x3, Toney, Rahman, Byrd, Donald, Savarese, and Ibragimov. Who else has fought let alone beat Tyson, Bowe, Lewis, Holmes, and Foreman?

        Holyfield has one of the most impressive resumes of active (or recently retired) fighters.

        Throughout history, there are too many old-time fighters who fought great fighters over and over and over again.

        Sam Langford's opposition level is insane.

            I'm just saying he has the best line up of the biggest names in boxing. Holyfield is older than Mike so no excuse.

                  he fought 3 mike tyson's of their time (liston , frazier and foreman) and they were in ther primes unlike the mike tyson holyfield fought.

                  ali would spit on holyfield's resume. the truth.

                    Sam Langford has the most ridiculous resume ever.

                    He fought 12 HOFers for a total of 57 fights.

                    Ezzard Charles's resume is amazing too. Of course, Ray Robinson is up there.

                    Of fighters who started in the second half of the 20th century, Muhammad Ali and Roberto Duran probably stand out among the greats as having the best levels of opposition fought.
