    Holyfield in his prime vs

    Frank Bruno
    Andrew Golota
    Michael Grant
    Razor Ruddock

    Does Holyfield go 4-0?

    Holyfield handled big guys pretty well even going into the late 2000s. Most scored him the winner of the confrontation with Valuev, and he was even bigger than Grant was.

    I'd be most interested in seeing Holyfield vs Bruno

    I'll take Holyfield over all of em, but Golota from the Byrd fight is gonna rough up Evander hard. That would be a fight to die for.

    Bruno would definitely put up a good fight. Just picture the one from the Witherspoon match and you're set.
