Right up front...Holly on a decision, at Heavy. The recurring problem with Jimmy (unless you were a fan with knowledge of what a defensive counterpuncher can bring) is that most refs, and judges, tend to discredit a counterpuncher's style. Look at the number of Quarry's DRAWS; look at the number of Galindez's close fights. Evander might do well to incorporate a body attack on Jimmy; if he comes out headhunting early, he's going to hit a lot of air! And Jimmy's not going to 'wilt' in this one and...he fought several guys with more power than Holly and kept them off with crisp counters, especially that big right! Holly would reach him on occasion but Jimmy would land often too. In closing I think the judges would give Evander the UD but with Young's stylistic workmanship he could well keep Holly off of him all night and send it to the cards! My $0.02
Jimmy Young and Holyfield sparred early in his pro career. Evander stated that a fortysomething Young made him look bad until he was instructed to throw higher numbers of combination punches in order to catch Young with the ones he couldn't slip. A fight between both in their primes would probably end in a close decision.
