I liked watching Evander fight, but some of the fights werent all that spectacular. Holmes, Bean, Moorer 1. It had more to do with the opponent than Evander. Match him with a guy who came forward and you had a great fight. More times than not, Evander was exciting.
His fight with Holmes was pretty decent. It had some pretty watchable moments and old Holmes did well against prime Holyfield. The first Moorer fight was pretty close and good to watch. Neither of those fights are bad but they're not high on excitement though pretty watchable. The Bean fight? You have me there. Overall, Holyfield was exciting as his wars with Bowe, a few rounds from Tyson 1, Tyson 2 until the bite, Moorer II, have shown and even his defeat to Toney was a good fight.
A truly exciting ATG warrior indeed! Real Deal has an incredible collection of very exciting fights at Heavyweight: Holy-Dokes Holy-Stewart I Holy-Foreman Holy-Cooper Holy-Bowe I Holy-Bowe II Holy-Mercer Holy-Bowe III Holy-Tyson I Holy-Moorer II Then there are his Cruiserweight classics like Holy-Qawi I & Holy-De Leon!
Personally i would say, in excitement terms: 1. Holy-Qawi I 2. Holy-Bowe II 3. Holy-Bowe I 4. Holy-Dokes 5. Holy-Foreman
God that picture of Haye is so annoying, I wanna stab him in the heart with a sharpened toothbrush shank. Anyway I'd say Holyfield was pretty exciting. He gave us some epic, epic wars.
Cooper, McDonaugh, Stewart I, DeLeon, Rahman, Mercer, his somewhat lesser knowns, were decent fights too. As close to a heavyweight Sugar Ray Robinson as there will ever be.
Holyfield was like the heavyweight Gatti alot of ways imo. Don't get me wrong, Holyfield doesn't need to be called another fighter, his name alone is good enough. Just saying that in terms of the excitment, give everything style they had. Evander is a absolute legend, who has given many great/exciting fights, and deserves the utmost respect, as a fighter. Holyfield was a scary ****ing man in his prime. Hell he's still scary now, just not as much in the ring.
Who voted boring? Look at how many entertaining bouts he's been involved in. Qawi 1, Stewart 1, Dokes, Foreman, Cooper, all the Bowe fights, Moorer 2. Even the Savarese fight, with Holyfield in his mid 40s, was pretty entertaining. The first Tyson fight is overrated as ****, but it was still a decent fight.
