Evander Holyfield was 208lb when he Ko'd Buster Douglas

[HeadShots]

realistically Buster Douglas who fought Holyfield was the same level as Bermane Stiverne-in the rematch-

[Eddy Current]

Holyfield took 100% more PEDs than Deontay Wilder does.

I was there too and at no point in Holyfields career was he considered a "light hitter". That's a straight up lie.

He was not considered to be a puncher, not compared to rivals such as Bowe, Tyson, Mercer, Lewis, Morrison, Foreman, Moorer, etc.

And the irony is... Holyfield was actually regarded as one of the light hitters during his era.

Ummmm! not exactly. Holy was not a pure puncher. and he was good enough that he could punch and convince people that he was a puncher. When he fought Bowe and lost, he went in as a puncher. When he won, he fought as a boxer puncher.

Holy was just good enough that he could end it with a big punch. But he usually won his fights with activity/work rate and relentless aggression/combinations.

While I don't think he would ever be considered a light hitter, I do think that in today's era his punch would carry more weight so to speak.

This thread just turned into a murder scene. I say GOT DAMN!

That's not what you said before. You said "light hitter." Holyfields power was always respectable. Nobody just walked through his punches and all of his opponents respected his punching power including Tyson who said Holyfield hit hard.

Mercer and Moorer were not above Holyfield as punchers. I don't know where you got that from.
