    110% true warrior.

    HGH may have helped him physically but mentally he's one of the toughest HW's of all time.

    Hate to say it but Vitali Klitschko has just as much heart.

    I think it's a fact that no heavyweight of the last 20 years has shown more heart than Evander. He's one of boxing's truest warriors.

    He's the best Cruiser ever but I penalize him heavily for being an obvious steroid abuser as a HW.

    he gassed terribly in both those fights, and vitali was hurt in the loss to byrd and hurt in the loss to lennox even though he protested it like an angry lion. neither of them lack heart at all

    Great video. Holyfield was my favorite fighter in high school. That brought back a lot of memories.

    He showed more heart and balls than all the current belt holders combined.

    Yeah, I meant he was a good one, he's often overlooked actually because he wasn't an entertaining fighter. "No I don't think so" was my answer to the question then I threw in a mention for Byrd, Who I've always liked, I probably should have put it on a new line it wasn't very clear.
