    The Holyfield that won the heavyweight title for the first time, and fought Rid**** Bowe 'In today's era could of still fought at cruiser-weight' He was 205 pounds when he fought Bowe etc

    That Holyfield would of beaten up Usyk from the opening bell very badly 'The fully fledged Holyfield at heavyweight, is a complete fighter' Holyfield is not really going to be confused or overwhelmed with anything that Usyk can do etc

    There is not one area, where I would rate Usyk better than Holyfield 'Holyfield's boxing skills where more proven and tested in his career'.

    Usyk is a solid fighter, but he is not really great in any area.

          Probably but Holyfield would beat the brakes off him if they fought.

            There is a chance that he could fight for the vacant title against, none of the top guys in the division 'Usyk does not beat any of the top guys in the division'.

            Who are the other fighters he can fight for a vacant title? Ruiz smashes him, Parker Smashes etc

            Usyk is trying to steal a title, that man does not want to fight.

              I doubt it Usyk will have a hw run as great as Holyfield but TS makes a valid point and i'm leaning towards the ukrainian in this one.

                Sorry.

                Qawi is better than Usyk.

                De Leon is probably better than anyone Usyk fought.
