    I say make it now, Povetkin could barely stand upright in the rematch so there isn't a lot of difference.

    Kind of depends on the time period were talking about here. A prime Holyfield around 91/94 stops whyte. The holyfield around 96/01 wins a decision. Whyte beats the Holyfield who lost to Donald, Ruiz and Byrd.

    I presume you're talking prime Vs prime?

    It's very clear right now Whyte would win in a single round... So that question would've been entirely pointless to ask.

    Prime Holyfield would beat any version of Whyte, I'd bet plenty on it if it were ever possible to actually arrange.

    In their prime?

    Holyfield by stoppage in 6.

    He rips Whyte apart. Brutally.

    LOL

    What thread next? Muhammad Ali vs Dillian Whyte?

    Holyfield is light years ahead of extremely limited Whyte.

    Holyfield should take this. Whyte has good inside game too, he is solid brawler.

    In both their primes. Both on their A game

    Holyfield. T/KO. I really can't see it any other way. Whyte would be game but it's really down to levels here.

    One fighter "tarks" a good deal, the other is the genuine article.

    Based on his last fight against Belfort, I'd say it's a toss up.
