    Yeah, that was what always surprised me about his comeback. When he was fighting the Steve Zouski's of the world, I kind of expected him to be the one coming forward.

    I made that same rationale with George against Evander, because Holyfield was so much smaller and not by definition a puncher.

    But when noted punchers like Briggs and Morrison didn't even TRY to match power shots with him, then I ran out of excuses. The big old guy was just that tough and powerful.
