Would Larry Donald have even given...

No trouble whatsoever. Evander would have beaten him soundly.

Larry has always had fast hands and was light on his feet, I dont think he would have given Evander trouble but I also dont think Evander would have knocked him out.

Evander never really had a prime, people were always quick to write him off and always was at the top of his game when people looked down on him and at the bottom when people looked up.

The Larry Donald we saw in the Evander Holyfield fight was the Larry Donald you would see in the gym. He was able to show what he has the capability to do because he was fighting a guy who was completely shot. If you want a realistic view of Larry Donald, watch the Rid**** Bowe and the Vitali Klitschko fights.

Larry Donald has some quick, although feather-fisted, hands and feet, but he is largely a fighter who lacks courage and character in the ring. If he was to step up against a serious contendor now (Rahman, Trinidad, Pacquiao), he would get knocked out.

I think so..

maybe a little trouble, but Evander in his prime would simply overwhelm donald and likely destroy him halfway through the fight.

a prime, top of his game donald could give a prime holy a fight.... probably not win, but put up a contest... why?? cause lets remember how a prime holy looked against two 40 year olds(homes, foreman) and bert cooper, not exactly great.... donald can box, take a punch and he does have some athleticsm... he would lose, but put he'd put a fight...

He Would Have Had A Chance. Any 200lb+ Man Can Give Anyobdy Trouble With One Good (lucky) Punch

Just so we are clear, you think Trinidad and Pacquiao would KO Donald? I am not saying that I disagree, I just want to be clear.

I think cute fighters that will pop a quick jab and then run away always gave Holyfield trouble, so in that sense, Donald could have given Holy a problem even 10 years ago.

Yes, Manny Pacquiao and Felix Trinidad would stretch Donald out.

Probably totally irrelevant, but in England that's a euphemism for ****sexuality. So it made me smile in a puerile kinda way...
