believe whatever u want, and i whatever i want. i didnt say tyson´s prime when he still got rooney and cust´ amato would ko holyfield´s prime easy but he would ko holyfield sooner or later.

quote from holyfield on his website " the hard work is not mike its the media"

I think douglas was a 40-1 underdog in that fight. it was one of the biggest upsets in sports history, if not the biggest

yep, but like i said before tyson wasent tyson anymore, the way he fight that night he would be ko by any medium boxer sooner or later anyway

Holyfield didn't fear Tyson and he had the chin for Tyson's punches. Man ate Bowe's punches and he ain't featherfisted. Prime Holyfiled knocks out prime Mikey.

holyfield always looks like he's in great shape physically. Also, that wasn't " prime " holyfield. I would say the Holyfield that was fighting Rid**** Bowe in three fights beats any Tyson at any age.

i dont think holyfield when he fight bowe the first fight could beat tyson´s prime, he was to small and weak.

the second fight vs bowe he went up 12pounds that holyfield would give a prime tyson a very tough fight, but he still wasent strong enough to beat prime tyson.

the third fight vs bowe holyfield got bad heart condition, tyson would ko that holyfield in 5round easily. big heart and granite chin dont ko tyson, and i dont think any chin can take 1 god punch from tyson and not be hurt.

Everbody thought i was a fool for picking Buster Douglas to win that fight, i kept telling everybody, Douglas could box, he was fast and hit hard, and he had that killer instinct, i knew if Douglas would hurt Tyson he would finish him and he did, he gave Tyson a boxing lesson, thats why Tyson was so confused, he never had nobody take it to him like Douglas did,

and then Douglas got a big head, thats why his head was a big target for Holyfield,

Tyson wasn't the same in the fight with douglas. King was pulling him one way and robin givens was pulling him another way. After Cus died it wasn't fun anymore. It was all about the cash.
