    Holyfield was great at cruiser, but many thought he would be too small and fade in the heavies.
    I guess being named the ESPN boxer of the decade (1990's as a heavywieght) wraps that up.
    Any others:huh

    Too small? But he took steroids and bulked up.

    Holyfield was a really dirty fighter. He cheated against Tyson, he used his head as a deadly weapon battering Tyson , held non-stop and was probably on steroids.

    Look at what he did Rahman's head with a headbutt- that is brutal.
