    Holys plan to Box goes out the window as soon as Dempsey tags him hard a few times. Now Holy fights Dempseys fight and gets stopped.

    At cruiserweight Holyfield showed:
    - he could go 15 rounds
    - he could knockout men who were 180-190 lbs
    - he could dominate a division
    - he could take a punch
    - he could beat hall of famers
