"Any top 20 HW would destroy Holyfield" - who agrees with this statement ?

    About 6 to 12 months ago I noticed that about 90% of people here on ESB were agreeing with the idea that Holyfield would stand NO CHANCE against any heavyweight in the top 10 or top 20.

    Now that he's facing a GENUINE top-ranked (top 10/top 5) heavyweight again I sense that most of the doomsayers have softened their rhetoric a bit.

    So, who's got to balls to stick to their original guns and state categorically that Holyfield will get ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED or COMPLETELY OUTCLASSED tonight ?

    If Holyfield doesnt get completely outclassed tonight it will just show exactly how much of decline the HW boxing scene is in ,because lets not forget a blown up middleweight 10 yrs past his best in James Toney was able to stop Holyfield easily :rasta

    I fully expect Holyfield to get whipped tonight.

    I support that statement about 90%. But it is Holyfield after all, and I give him a 10% chance to succeed.
