    Just watched Holyfield Tyson 1 again. Today's heavyweights are all TRASH

    ALL of them

    Every last stinking one

    Fury, Wilder, Ruiz, AJ, Usyk, Parker, Whyte, Hrgovic

    They all STINK

    watch those two warriors, and that WASN'T EITHER OF THEM AT THEIR PEAK.

    The quality is night and day and u ain't seeing no chicken dances from half grazing shots.

    Those boys eat power shots **** on the chin that would ko all of today's top heavyweights.

    If they were taking the stack Evan Fields was taking these modern day fighters would be much improved.


    Remember Lennox beat the ass of Tyson and Holyfield

    Lewis was the greatest heavyweight of his generation.

      Yeah, that was a great fight. One of the best HW championship fights.

      I was 14 when that fight happened, I wanted Holyfield to win so bad, but I thought Tyson was gonna kill him lol.

        Since when does taking steroids improve skills?????

        Tyson and Holyfield had skills that took YEARS to develop and harness.

        Anyone can throw windmill punches like Wilder.

          You referred to their ability to take punches.

            For real. 90's heavyweight boxing was amazing. They used to throw bombs none stop. Still watch footage all the time. At least 3 times a week.

            Only people still fighting like this in this day and age are the Mexicans. That's it.

            Everyone else wants to do the ****** Whitaker/Mayweather slick shiiiit or the Cuban run around the ring avoiding a fight thing. **** that chicken style bullshiiiit.

              Yeah I remember staying up for Tyson Holyfield 1 back in 96. I actually was telling everyone I thought Holyfield would win that fight. Clearly I was right.


              I watched The Rumble in the jungle last night for the first time in a long time. Ali imo truly was The Greatest. He took some scary shots and brushed them off. Crazy chin and determination.

                I know what you mean, they threw more punches, land more punches, variety of punches. Maybe they were all on PED like Holyfield was? But I was thinking the same thing whilst watching Douglas/Holyfield and Lewis/Holyfield first fight. This new era can’t throw four punches without gassing out.

                  Lennox, Holyfield, and Tyson are all-time greats.

                  Out of 135 years' worth of fighters, they're usually ranked in the top 10.

                  Let them finish their careers before judging them by such harsh standards.
