Holyfield wasn't even 205lbs in his own era, but he doesn't have the fight IQ Usyk does so it'd depend entirely on who his opponent is. I'd say he...
Did you even read past my first sentence? Smaller boxers being inferior at most sports than their heavyweight counterpart was actually part of my...

Funnily enough I just talked about this is another thread in regards to Floyd Patterson heh. I'd say at their best, Jack Johnson, Archie Moore,...
I am just being pedantic tbh BUT I don't think you can say Floyd had a great defense. He has great hand speed, character and heart. Off the top of...
