Day 27: On a scale of 1-10, rate Evander Holyfield's win over Mike Tyson

8/10.

If that Mike Tyson was active today, he would have a restraining order put on him etc

Mike Tyson was still a very capable heavyweight back then.

Good fight also, when I watched it as a kid 'I thought to myself, this is a very slow paced fight'. But now looking back compared to most heavyweights now? The pace Holyfield & Tyson Fought at resembled a super middle fight 'Body movements etc'.

Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder I & II, after a few rounds the fighters looked as if they are fighting under water 'And I think this is down to their processing speed, speed of thought and calculation'.

I gave it a 9.

Not a prime Mike, but an all time win for sure

I give Holyfield a 10 rating for his victory over Mike Tyson. Everyone thought that Mike would hurt him and knock him out. In addition, he did not look good in his previous fight with Bobby Czyz.

Gave it a 9. Mega fight, big underdog, and won in style.

Tyson was still feared at that time. Though hindsight tells us he was done for.

10 remember watch as a 15 year old celebrating every round Holyfield got through as it reached the midway stage a started think wow he can win this......

He knocked him out and then made him quit. It doesn't get any better than that. 10!

**JakeTheBoxer** · 08-30-2020, 02:27 PM
