Better Combination Puncher: Mike Tyson or Evander Holyfield

Tough one, id have to go with Holyfield.
i feel Tyson sometimes went a little too much out to get the one-punch KO.

that being said, i think Tyson throws the more dangerous combinations. the ones that hurts the most.

I maybe a bit biased here, but I'm going with Evander.

post jail tyson was a one punch head hunter

tyson in his prime years was probably the best combination puncher since joe louis. i mean he's got some trademark combos.

holyfield was pretty good, but he had to punch in combos and mix his shots up because he very seldom could nail a guy with one lethal shot, although we've seen him do it a couple of times with his left hook.

overall tyson is better.

Tyson when he was with Kevin Rooney. Went to the body and head beautifully. However, when Tyson left Rooney he became a head hunter. And, Holyfield was the better combination puncher from that point on.

I'm gonna go with Tyson because of all the butting Holyfield did when they fought. Holyfield kept trying to turn it into a wrestling match.

Deserved to lose his ear.

There are two versions of the pre-jail Tyson.

There is the Kevin Rooney era pre-jail Tyson.

And, the post Kevin Rooney era pre-jail Tyosn.

Holy wasn't better combination puncher then the Rooney era but he was better then post Rooney era even though it was the pre-jail Tyson.
