    holyfield has fought and beat fighters that are better than anyone on wlads resume

    holyfield is a top 10 maybe even top 5 all time heavyweight champion

    wlads pawing jab and slow right hand....bang bang bang bang hes just been hit by a 4 punch combination by holyfield.

    wlad not in the same league

    I think Wlad is to good and to big for Holyfield. As good as Hoyfield was against big fighters with skill he has a losing record 1 -4.

    The first Lewis fight should have been a win. And if Bowe had more motivation I don't think he ever would have lost to Holyfield.
     
  5. holyfield was and is one of the biggest steroid abuser's in boxing

    cant remember which fight, but he had mr olympia (black british guy) in his corner

    I think Wlad takes it in a dull fight. Holyfield doesn't have Wlad's reach. Wlad throws the jab all night and doesn't commit to many right hands. Every time Holyfield mounts an offense, Wlad raises his arms and jumps backwards like he did against Haye. A very cautious Wlad makes it a dull fight for twleve rounds. I think Wlad might have the power to put Holyfield down once or twice but he wouldn't commit to it enough to do any damage. Wlad doesn't often sit down on his punches unless he's fighting someone grossly overmatched.

    Prime Holyfield is too determined of a fighter for current wlad... wlad has all the physical advantages but Holyfield has what Wlad's recent opponents don't have, HEART.... on pure heart alone, I see a Prime Holyfield KO'ing Wlad in the mid to late rounds.... it would be a great fight.

    I could see either a Holyfield stoppage or a Wladimir UD. Holyfield did look good in the second Lewis fight mixing it up with Lewis and giving him hell, but from what I remember in the first fight Lewis fought more tentative and wasn't looking to mix it up a lot like the way Wladimir fights. I thought Lewis won a wide decision in that fight even though the fight was ruled a draw.

    Unless Wlad learns how to shorten up his punches like Bowe I don't see how he beats Holyfield !

    Maybe he is overrated but they guy had one hell of a chin and was a very good fighter in his prime. The reason I say Holyfield will KO Wlad is that Wlad would´nt be able to handle the same kind of punches that Bowe took against Holyfield.

    so your equating one of the ATG 's in Holyfield with Chris Byrd ? thats your reasoning - wlad beat byrd so he'd beat Holyfield too ?

    Its frightening to think that theres people out there with your level of ignorance .
