    Holyfield from the first Bowe fight smashes AJ in 8 imo.

    What if AJ took Holyfield's PEDs and Holy took AJ's? Now that's a superfight.

    Joshua stops Evander in his tracks several times but is a total, staggering mess by the 9 th round. The ref takes pity and stops it after a knockdown, AJ's eyes are glazed over.

    Holyfield has the chin and boxing ability to win, but he was hittable and tended to abandon game plans. I’d go with Holyfield but it would be a war. I can see both guys getting dropped but Holy’s superior chin and stamina would be the difference

    Well, I'll ask.

    Do we mean Evander Holyfield, or Evan Fields?

    HGH Holy wins that one all the live long day. But now that we know that most of Holy's accomplishments were linked to taking one of the most effective PEDS, well, I have a feeling Joshua if there was drug testing.

    Joshua on them top shelf PEDs too, it's part of the reason he has 0 gas in the tank after he throws a combination. Those unnatuaral roid muscles are sucking his oxygen supply to strangulation levels.

    Joshua without PEDs is Ernie Terell. Skin and bones
