Evander Holyfield appreciation thread.

[BM dnobagaV]

Probably my favourite fighter ever.

I just want to say that if not for his garbage head butting. That just turned me off so much.

[Graz]

Probably one of the greatest of all time and also under appreciated IMHO. Was fortunate to see him fight live back in the day. Amazing athlete.

Was an aspect of his style. He kept his head low and rushed in with his punches to close the gap on his opponents. Look at the Rahman fight and tell me that was an intentional headbutt?

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.

What about that fack yourself you internet warrior?

So we can't critisize a fighter even when he get caught by the cops for taking roids?

I was a big Holyfield fan, and I was really disappointed when this sotry happened in 2007.

Evander was a warrior, fearless, but is linked to two different PEDS affaires?

Bro, accept the critics and stay polite instead of acting like a sensitive grupie.

Lol, what?

Holyfield is definitely one of my favorite fighters. I watch his fights from time to time to see if I can see anything new. I personally believe he was P4P the best.

[UNBIASED BOXING]

Even if he was on roids, his traps were ****ing insane. Like ****. Reminds me of Frank Bruno.


****ing monsters, even though I'm assuming Bruno was probably on roids as well.

I had Holyfield/Foreman saved on my parents DVR for the longest time. That might be my favorite fight of all time, and that may have been the 5th best Holyfield fight? Qawi I was a favorite of mine also.

He reminds me of another one of my favorite fighters, Erik Morales, in the sense that he was a well schooled fighter, but as soon as you got in a couple of good ones on him, he's say "fuck it" and go to war on you.

Guys like Frank and Evander were physical specimens, roids or not.
