Wladimir might have cause him problems because of his size and jab, but Holyfield was amazing in his prime. Holyfield wins......
Evander Holyfield (prime) Vs Wlad Klitschko
Collapse

Klitschko has not got the gas tank to deal with a prime Holyfield. Wlad is blowing when he fights at a slow pace (Thompson)and Holyfield is his prime was a punching machine. Holyfield would roll straight over him imo.
Too much fight in Evander for Wlad to deal with.Comment

Evander Holyfield is too small ? well he did beat big Heavyweights like George Foreman, Rid**** Bowe, Buster Douglas, Larry Holmes, and he went even with a better version of Wladimir Klitschko aka Lennox Lewis. In there 2nd fight while being past his prime.
People overrate Wladimir Klitschko far too much for my liking, yes he is the best Heavyweight in the world but he is the best Heavyweight in the weakest Heavyweight era of all time.
Evander Holyfield was great at his best he had unbelievable stamina, good movement and great counter punching skills. And despite what people say about him not having true Heavyweight punching power.
He did manage to put iron chinned Ray Mercer down for the first time in his career, put down Mike Tyson with one punch. And change the whole fight around in the 10th round with one punch, aswell as knocking down Rid**** Bowe with one left hook.
Evander Holyfield would struggle to get inside Wladimir Klitschko's jab, but i still think as the rounds worn on and as Wladimir Klitschko tires. Evander Holyfield would be able to get inside Wladimir Klitschko's jab.
And use stick and move tactics like how he beat Rid**** Bowe, and like how he gave Lennox Lewis hell in there 2nd fight, while being past his prime.
Evander Holyfield by late TKO for me, his chin is too good his stamina is too good. And his skills and underrated punching power would get to Wladimir Klitschko eventually.Comment

LOL Ray Mercer had no regard for punching power in his prime. The man could take a helluva shot.Comment

People don't realize that Holyfield does some of his best work against big men (small speedy slicksters such as Toney, and Byrd are the fights that give him the most problems), and to those who say he wouldn't cope with that overrated Jab of Wlad's look no further than his fight against Riddek Bowe, who was a much better fighter than Wlad prime 4 prime. Hell even a past prime Holmes had a better jab than Wlad and he managed to get in on him. Seriously Holyfield by mid round stoppage.Comment
