    I don't know that I disagree...

    Try harder for a serious post next time.. Hear's one. Vit would lose to, oh, any respectable HW of the past 100 years, that will suffice.

    Threads like this demonstrate just how UNDERrated Holyfield is.

    I think its high time we transform this thread into another discussion about Jack Dempsey. Afterall, we haven't had enough of them since thanksgiving.

    Holyfield was a very accomplished HW, no doubt about it.

    He also very likely was a consistent roider, and that diminishes him in my eyes greatly.
