    Holyfield actually has the most famous resume at hw ever

    He beat Mike Tyson, Holmes, Foreman, Bowe.

    Who else has so many famous names?

    Only Ali maybe, nobody else.

            Yeah when you look at his resume its stacked with names. Probably one of the best resumes win or lose of all time. His record is similar De La Hoya. He beat some seriously dangerous opponents in style and was never afraid to take on the best.

            Top 5 HW of all time in my opinion. Let's not forget he was a monster at CW and beat the snot out of the division.

              I think Terrell, Chuvalo, and Lyle may be famous enough to add to them.

                Cool thread bud.

                Tillis, Thompson, Dokes, Ruiz, Moorer, Toney, Byrd, Mercer, Rahman, Oquendo, Ibragimov, Valuev, Nielsen, Buster and Botha aren't exactly unknowns themselves.

                Holy went out of his way to fight guys folks know that's for sure. Win or lose, prime or not, most of Evander's record is recognizable and that's pretty special in boxing let alone the HW division.

                  AJ beat Ruiz Jr, Parker, Klitco, and Whyte. Guys who are the equivalent of your list in that exact same order.
