    because he's so big and has to carry so much weight that it is very difficult for him to get much speed and snap on his punches.

    the guy is a better fighter than people give him credit for and holyfield at this stage in his career has no chance at all.

    That skill level was fading a decade ago, unfortunately.

    Fight him like Holy fought Bowe in '93. Get in and out quick, punches in bunches, work da body Rock. If I thought Holy could rev up his engine sufficiently I'd definitely back him to be able to do that gameplan.

    14 months is a long layoff for Holyfield, second longest of his career...

    I just do not see how Holyfield is going to win this fight. He cannot carry out a strategy like Chagaev becuase he is old and slower. If he tries to outbox Valuev, it is not going to happen. He should try to knock him out if he wants to win. The way Valuev fights, most of the fights go the distance and he gets the decisions based on his jabs. If someone wants to beat him, he should take the risks and try to knock him out.

    :lol::lol::lol:

    ...but who is Rocky to Holys Apollo ?

    Based on comparable ages and the two fight rivalry it has to be Lennox !
