How do you rate Evander Holyfield?

Mid-Level HOFer, in his prime he was a devastating boxer.

 

Mid-level ATG is the most likely I'd think. High level HOF at the least.

 

Its tough because I loved his heart and desire to fight. His fights with Riddick Bowe and Tyson sealed it for me. High level HOF who was a blown up LH and was at the top elite level for so long. ATG? eh maybe if he beat Lewis and Bowe but fell short.

 

Mid-level ATG in my books.

 

A voted none of the above because of his steroid use. It makes you wonder how long he was taking steroids for. Steroid use = absolutely no place in the HOF .

 

High level ATG.

 

Too much steroid use ruined part of his heart, and in some fights he looked cumbersome, was embarrassed by a true ATG in Toney.

Really overstayed his welcome.


High level HOFer.

 

Another steroid user

 

mid level sounds right, but hes the upper mid level if thats possible.

 

High Level ATG.

No question about that.

Why are boxing fans so indifferent about steroids. It is like no body cares. In track and field sprinting an athlete is stripped of a titles, records and banned for years but in boxing you considered an ATG.

 

too many 'accidental' headbutts!

 

Low level ATG. He is a two division champion top 15 in one (the ultimate divison) and number one at the other (shitty as this division may be). Hell a case can be made for mid level ATG (depending on how you view his Cruiserweight career).

 

He never tested positive and denies ever taking steroids.

There was just some talk because some firm in Alabama ofered athletes steroids and there was a name Evan Fields.

There was never any evidence.
