Holyfield actually has the most famous resume at hw ever

[NORMNEALON]

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

U have to be kidding me . Joshua has Wlad that's it when it comes to legit famous names . And in North America wlad isn't exactly a household name himself .

Fighters should get credit for fighting the best too. Not just who they beat.

It’s not saying much but he should’ve gotten a win over Valuev when he was like what, 50?

His full resume of fighters he beat and lost to:

Tyson 2x
Foreman
Bowe 3x
Qawi 2x
Holmes
Lewis 2x
Toney
Moorer
Ruiz 3x
Rahman
Byrd
Buster Douglas
Dokes
Valuev
Ibragimov
Mercer

There’s several more tough HW’s worth mentioning but I will just leave it at that.

That’s a heck of a lot of decent, good and great names to have fought.

Fighting tough opposition for so long and remaining at the top for so long is incredible thinking about it. Holyfield was competitive throughout his whole career and fighting machines. Probably one of the most durable boxers to ever do it. Holyfield is probably the toughest to ever compete in the ring.

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.

Yeah, old Holy is the only guy from 90s that fought them all.

[Tatabanya]

For all that was said here - and in spite of him having defeated my idol of youth - I have tremendous respect for Evander.

Ali has Sonny Liston, Floyd Paterson, Joe Frazier, George Foreman, Ken Norton, Earnie Shavers.

And Archie Moore!

thats a lot of names.

That sounds like a vagìnal implement company to me.

[Tatabanya]

And Archie Moore!

And Larry Holmes, unfortunately.
