    After last night my opinion hasn't changed - Holyfield by close decision in a great fight

    At Cruiserweight? In his prime?

    Didn't think so.

    No, just no. Evan Fields PED monster was an atg Cruiser but saying he would destroy Usyk is wrong. Who did he fight like Usyk during his career?

    I'm not saying he wouldn't win, but saying he would "destroy" is just the wrong word. Particularly in a one line response without analysis.

    Has Usyk beaten anybody as good as Riddick Bowe, Mike Tyson, George Foreman, or Michael Moorer?

    One line responses without analysis is all they have. Lol

    “Usyk gets destroyed at HW doe!”

    “Usyk can’t take HW punches doe!”

    “Holyfield DESTROYS Usyk doe!”


    Lol! Based off NOTHING. Usyk has taken harder shots than many of these top HW’s have. And has proven to be a more well rounded fighter than any of them.

    Since you put it like that lol.
    Problem on here with some is they can’t think subjectively and it’s either Usyk “Destroys him or vice versa when infact imo it would have twelve rounds written all over it but on their respective careers I’d go for Holyfield.

    Truth is neither guy would “destroy”each other,both are great boxers and over a trilogy I could easy see a win apiece and a draw between them.

    Holyfield would be too small.

    Usyk.

    Hard to say. I always favor guys before from the 1980s but what a war. It is a tossup. Usyk could frustrate Evander like Evander could be frustrated, so Evander would have to make it a war and keep it up. If I had to pick I would go with Evander by UD.
