the single worst i ever saw was barrera against pac in the first fight. i think round 10 he realized this is a complete **** kicking and basically just threw headbutts like e honda from street fighter. it was painful to watch...
Holyfield is one of the biggest cheats ever. It's not just headbutts, but that's his favorite weapon. Its the roids, it's the purposefully hitting after the bell, the tackles, the elbows...
yeah for a huge Barrera fan that was a bad night, he just wanted out of the ring one way or the other. As big a pac fan as i have become i still cant watch that fight even though it was pacs arrival on the big stage. :-(
No doubt , its annoying when the casual fan goes on about what an animal Tyson was when Holy was as bad if not worse. it just so happened when mike went radge is was pretty spectacular !
Deffo , even with the knock down early it seemed obvious pretty much straight away that barrera was in for a looong night its mad to think of that little almost unknown super bantam just steam rollering a still very very good Barrera , little did we know back then !
it is more of an officiating problem than the fighters, some refs let some guys get away with anything
If you mean Holy , check out the Tyson Movie there are some cracking slow mo shots. there is one in the second fight that actually buckles Tysons legs. Its a headbutt even a Glaswegian thought was over the top
In all honesty and you aint got to take my word for it, get a copy of the fight yourself and watch, Rahman is the one who caused that, Holyfield had Rahman hurt and jumped on him while Rahman was on the ropes, Rahman in a panic bounced off the ropes head first while Evander was set punching and the heads clashed, that was clearly Rahmans fault and you could see it clear as day in action and on the slow mo replay.
