    that version of Holyfield > than any version of Haye. If Haye tried to match Holyfields workrate he gets KOed in less than 6. If he goes into his defensive shell he loses 118-110

      I think this would've been a damn good fight with fireworks written all over it.

      Damn, it's hard to call, but I'm leaning on Holyfield winning a close SD...

      Thoughts?
      Holyfield by straight KO haye would get bodied!! The Tyson that fought evander would even body haye

            Holyfield was nearly 50 at the time but I genuinely believe 110% Holyfield was robbed and did beat Valuev better.
            I think I only gave Valuev 1 round, maybe 2.

              Holyfield would eat his punches IMO he has faced much harder punchers and Better boxers

                Holyfield stops him late, and it wouldn't be that competitive.

                  I maybe wrong but from I remember he put a real pasting on Cooper and stopped him pretty early. Beat up Dokes pretty bad too.

                  No doubt in my mind the Holyfield around Stewart, Douglas, Bowe, Foreman, Holmes time buries Haye.

                  What does the guy do better than a prime Holyfield?
                  Nah man, Cooper had Holyfield in trouble and almost stopped the fight. I'm pretty sure Holyfield was out on his feet, but managed to pull it together before stopping Cooper. That's what made Holy so great.

                  Same thing happen in the Dokes fight.

                    Prime Holyfield. Check it out. If that was Haye at 1:57, I think the fight could've been over, TKO for Haye:



                    I still think Holyfield wins, but it's much closer than people think.

                      is this a joke? holyfield is 10 times the fighter Chisora is. And at 208 he was way faster than Haye and much stronger.
