    The fight would be incredible. Although I wonder if Frazier would be able to get it up for Holyfield like he did for Ali. That anger, meanness, rage... that would not be there. Holyfield is a polite mama's boy, would never in a million years call another black man an uncle tom or say the things Ali did. He'd never give Frazier the motivation that Ali did.

    Beats Patterson and Norton. 50/50 with Frazier. Loses to Ali

    He's only assured of beating Hearns. I think it's fair to ask if we're talking about the bulked-up version of Holyfield or the cruiserweight version because they were two different men. He is obviously stronger after artificially bulking up.

    Bulked-up Holyfield beats him decisively. Organic Holyfield gains a narrow decision win.
