    **1992 Evander Holyfield vs 2010 Wladimir Klitschko**

    Who would you pick in this fight...

    Evander gave Bowe a run for his money this year, even though he lost...

    Bowe is around the size of the Wladimir Klitschko...

    We know Wlad is a heck of a boxer, strong and powerful...

    Evander wasn't that big, but he has the heart of a Lion....

    Evander by decision or TKO, no way Wladimir gets Evander off of him.

      I don't think Wlad is as good on the inside as Bowe was.

      He has a better jab and more power though...

        Wlad would keep him on the outside for most of the fight and win a decision.

          If Holyfield could use his corner stool to get up to Wlad's height and headbutt him he'd have a chance.

          Otherwise a onesided, brutal beatdown win for Wlad.

            Keep in mind Evander isn't that small. He's 6'2 1/2 with a 77" reach, Brewster has the same height and reach although Brewster is bigger. If Wladimir had trouble with Brewster, he will have his hands full with Evander who was really skilled and fast during his prime.

              Evander would reach him, no doubt about that....

              I wouldn't dare say brutal beatdown, we're talking a pretty much "Prime" Evander here....

                  Wlad is too big, too good and too powerful. Think about how much a prime Evander struggled with a decent big man w/ a jab in Rid**** Bowe.

                  Now extrapolate that and imagine what a great big man with a better jab would do.

                  He would wear Evander out and stop him in the later rounds.

                    Rid**** Bowe was a very good insider fighter, Wladimir is not. Unlike most heavyweights today, Evander will get to Wladimir's chin constantly.
