Evander Holyfield appreciation thread.

[K-Nan]

Where my "Real Deal" fans at? This guy was the bridge between the old and new era of Heavyweight boxing. A functional cruiserweight who fought every single contender or champion put in front of him, no questions asked. My favorite aspect of Holy's style was he fact that he was one of the most dangerous fighters EVER when hurt. Heart like no other. In his prime he was a force of nature.

If I decided to compile a list of my 20 favourite fights, It wouldn't surprise me if 4 or 5 of Evander's made the cut.

Too scared to go through vada testing roided to death too

Great performer with iron balls and skills but he was a cheat

[bojangles1987]

Holyfield was one of the most well-rounded fighters heavyweight has ever seen. And of course his will to win was as strong as there ever was.

He made the most of every bit of ability he was born with.
