    Holyfield did beat Oquendo and was robbed against Valuev for the WBa title 4 years after his fight with Toney.

    Slightly random favourite fight was his knockout of Tim Littles back in his supermiddleweight days. He was cut badly over the eye in the previous round with the fight looking likely to be stopped. Toney came out in the next round and knocked him out. He was one of two or three best in the world at that point.

    So do we give Larry Donald fighter of the year in 2004 for easily beaten Holyfield.
