    Holyfield via late stoppage. Way more skilled fighter

      On the opposite side of the coin, Wilder is absolutely fucking awful.
      There is a story of one night Holyfield didn't have a struggle with acomodating a bigger, thicker man...according to Haye, after a few pints, one cold November night...

        Wilder's chin would be tested.

          Wilder’s chin is pretty decent IMO, but I think Holyfield would land regularly and cleanly enough to stop him.

            Holyfield gets on the inside early and often, eventually hurts Wilder and stops him.

                Lol of all the old heavyweights from the 90s Wilder matches up with holyfield the best,truth is holyfield was at his best at cruiserweight,heavyweights holyfield relied more on headbutts and trying to ruff up his opponent like Shawn Porter does,but he couldn't really do it on the bigger heavyweights like Lewis and bowe,and he didn't move his head that much,I could definitely see Wilder knocking him down multiple times,or holyfield out willing Wilder, it'd be a close fight

                  Yes, definitely. But he's got to land on the man, probably several clean times, without getting hurt himself.

                  I got Holyfield by stoppage.

                      Holyfield wasn't on PEDs.
