    It's also pretty damn underrated, seeing Holy outside of the top 10 sickens me.

    On reznick's list the eleven names ahead of him are (in order): Ali, Lois, Holmes, Marciano, Foreman, Lewis, Johnson, Frazier, Liston, Dempsey, and Tyson.

    On Rumsfeld's they are: Ali, Louis, Marciano, Holmes, Lewis, Johnson, Foreman, Dempsey, Tyson, Frazier, and Liston.

    (all the same names in a different order, interestingly)

    Other than maybe Tyson on both lists, who there can you absolutely not stomach being ahead of Holyfield?

    Johnson & Dempsey.

    By the way, I rank Holy at #6, where he deserves to be.

    I met Holyfield at a reception here in Toronto a couple of years ago.I get the impression he is delusional about not only his fighting skills as they relate today but also his quest to win the heavy title.
    I can't believe he truly believed what he was saying.Sad.:-(

    Rumsfield, ask Evander about such things please:
    - had he really considered retirement if he had won his fight vs Lennox Lewis?
    - when was Holyfield's prime as a boxer (his own opinion)?
    - how did he score his 1st and 2nd fights against Lennox?
    - top 3 wins on his resume?
    - how does he rank Tyson, Foreman, Lewis, Bowe, Moorer, Mercer, Cooper, Rahman, in terms of punching power?
    - why did he choose granite-chinned Williams for his next fight?
    -doesn't he want to fight some low level jorneymen (like Foreman did in his return) and stay more active?
    - what does he think about possible fights vs Golota, Ruddock, Mercer and other old fighters? It would be great veteran tournament

    I hope you'll ask him all these questions:good

    Great questions.

    Don't forget Alex Stewart, he was a quality tier 2 fighter & a hard puncher, Holy had two fights with him, the first one being an exciting war.

    If I could have you ask Evander anything, I would have you ask him about that early doors encounter with Tyson. The story goes that they were young am's together at some kind of mad boxing camp. There was a confrontation between Holyfield and Tyson in the pool room and Tyson backed the **** up. Holyfield sort of became alpha male for that troupe. I've even heard it told as a story as to why Tyson was never going to have his head right for Holyfield - Tyson had already been bossed by him.

    I can dig out some detail on this question, but if you ask it you have to tell him I love him and I think he would have beaten Tyson whenever ever their paths crossed. And tell him I would like to kiss him on the lips.

    Don't tell him the lips part, that's silly.

    Is he really that bad? Wow. He's always so nice and Christian-like on TV, proclaiming his love for Jesus Christ and The Lord and all that. I didn't think he'd be such a dick behind closed doors. :shock:
