Is it unanimously agreed that prime Holyfield beats prime Lewis ?

What alt are you?

Jk

 

Sounds like something an alt would say.

 

shhhh

 

No, not in my opinion at least. I see Holy being beat in a similar way to the first Bowe fight. Fighting bravely but Lennox to good for him.

 

It probably wouldn’t look to different from their fights honestly. A young Holyfield would have a lot more moments but Lewis just has all the tools to beat him

 

Lewis won both fights clearly.
And Holyfield wasn't shot one bit. He had lost some speed, but he was stronger than ever due his steroid abuse.

 

If they fought in 91-93, Holyfield would stop him or beat him decisively on points.

 

I don't think Holy would beat Lewis except for maybe 1 in 10 times.

 

I’d say prime Holyfield was 1990/91 and that’s almost a decade before he actually fought Lewis. Consequently, I have to say Holyfield’s then speed, combinations and movement is just too much for Lewis. Both are ATG but in reality Lewis definitely beat a washed up version, same with Tyson. At least when Holyfield and Tyson met they were both declining.

 

91 Holyfield was not as strong nor as durable as 98 Holyfield

 

No he would not.
Back then, he was smaller, not as strong or durable.
And Lewis was faster.

 

To be fair my Alt detection skills are pretty solid. Out of 4 recent predictions 3 were banned shortly afterwards...
I don't throw the accustaion around just on a new user. it's when it's a clear hate post.

 

I would favour prime Holyfied.

 

The second fight could have gone either way. A lot of the press row had it for Holyfield.
