I just gave you one...lewis !You are not really watching the fights you making assumptions with age,no one who watches the Tyson fights ot lewis ones would possibly agree that his defense was worse or his footwork. Holyfield never had that power jab he had in the lewis second fight anyone can see that.

 

More proven? The guy is the most inconsistent HW possibly of All-Time. He lost way too often. Additionally, a 1991 Holy just started making HW. Can you think of any CW now that would give Wlad problems. They don't even come up on the radar. David Haye was the only one because he had the speed and power.

If Wlad can deal with Haye's in and out movement and his power, then he can deal with EHs.

 

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahashahahahaha!!!

 

There he is! Figured you'd be making your way into here.

 

Holyfield turned HW in 1988 dummy.

Holy vs Haye would have been a one sided mismatch.

Haye couldn't replicate the skills of a 40 year old Holyfield , much less the complete , multi-dimensional Holy of the early 90's.

Haye's entire construct as a boxer would barely fit in Evanders left ball sack.

What you said basically equates to Holyfield being no better than David Haye and where Haye failed Holy would also be sure to fail.

You're a disgrace to boxing forums. Much like all fanatical Wladturds.

 

I don't get the comparison: Holyfield was not an in-and-out ambush fighter like Haye. Also had way more aggression, determination, and toughness than Haye, fwiw. Holyfield was certainly a more talented in-fighter than Wlad; the real question is whether Wlad would be able to hold and push his way out of danger whenever Holyfield inevitably got inside on him. If so, Wlad probably wins. If not, I'd probably have to go with Holyfield.

 

He didn't start fighting for the belts until late 1990.

I'm not saying Haye is as good as Holy. I'm just pointing out that his speed and power are probably better.

We just saw Povetkin (who is naturally bigger than EH and a better amateur background) get slaughtered by Wlad.

I think a better fight would be AP vs. EH.

The only advantage I see Evander have over Wlad is possibly chin.

More Power ---> Wlad
Better Defense ---> Wlad
Better Technique ---> Wlad
Taller ---> Wlad
Faster ---> Same
Conditioning ---> Same
Heart ---> Same (Wlad always gets up)
Natural Health ---> Wlad (Holy has a heart condition)
Strength ---> Wlad
Better Jab ---> Wlad
Better Right Hand ---> Wlad
Better Left Hook ---> Wlad

 

I give Holyfield the edge in chin, a slight edge in heart, but the rest is all Vlad to me. I think Klitschko would likely win. Even if we point out that many of Evander's losses came over the age of 35 --usually a useful arguing point for him-- in this case it doesn't hold up, because Vlad is almost 40 and more dominant than ever. Overall he has just been the more consistent of the two and I would pick him to win by UD.

 

deal

 

Conditioning same???atsch

A low work rater who gassed out multiple time is equal in conditioning to Holyfield?:nut

Did you ever even watch these guys box?

 

Ive read some **** on here, but that takes the biscuit.

 

Holyfield takes this and easy.

Holyfield bought the heat, more than any opponent of Wlad. It explains why Wlad ducked Chisora a number of times.

If the Real Deal heat could melt iron, hell melt steel too.

 

A fighter with no history of ducking ducked Chisora to fight a far superior fighter that was also a worse stylistic matchup for him.

Makes total sense.
