    Is this as one sided as I think it is or could McCall land of those hail Marys and sleep Evander.

    I don't belive he could. Holyfield would bounce around McCall, pot shotting him. Oliver never gets a good chance to blast his man, and any punches he does land, Holy soaks em up.
    Holyfield by unanimous decision in a pretty one sided fight.

    Holyfield by UD, his combination punches being key here.

    It’s as one-sided as you think is. Holly’s chin is too solid for him to pull off a Lewis and Holly’s combinations would carve him up and place him on a platter for a wide UD.

    Holyfield comfortable UD, I think it's obvious.

    I guess McCall would have a puncher's chance.

    Holy by UD or McCall for exhaustion of Holy in the vain attempt to knock McCall down after 3 or 4 of his brawls.
