    LOL. You think Golota had the endurance, ring intelligence, and mental toughness to go 12 with Holy?

    Yeaaaaaa ok.

    I always found it strange that Holyfield could look amazing against an elite heavyweight, but look like an amateur against journeyman. Can anyone explain why?

    Holyfield seems like a guy who needed his own theme music

    It's like people forget him quitting vs Michael Grant. Or leaving Duva coz his 'mannerisms made him nervous'.

    I agree that this Golota is a little underrated. But Holy too quick and too tough.
