    Holyfield in a very interesting fight in which Patterson would have good moments...

    They're evenly matched. At 190, before Evander bulked up, he was not a physical marvel and would not have been able to push Floyd around. Patterson was fully capable of knocking Holyfield out. I'm not sure the reverse is true.
