    Yes by holding and headlocking their heads.

    Battles of the PEDS. GOAT cruiserweight (Holyfield) vs. next best, at heavyweight.

    Holyfield too much of a puncher for Usyk.

    Holyfield would take one step where Usyk takes two. That's what got him through those bigger guys, toe to toe.

    Holyfield-Blubber Douglas > Usyk- Mental Midget Joshua. Holyfield would have knocked Joshua the **** out.. maybe even with a bodyshot. In spectacular fashion.

    Let's see Usyk-Fury

    Well If Usyk and Holyfield fought at heavy I’d go with Holyfield…. I think at cruiser it’s a Pickem…. With a slight lean to Evander

    Fury can grab hold of a fully grown 6'4" 250 pound man from halfway across a ring with ease

    I mean… look what Byrd did with him. I’d say Usyk is a wayyyyy better southpaw than Byrd. Offensively much more dangerous too.

    Holyfield doesn't pass modern doping testing. Even if he did manage to fool the tests I'd still go with Usyk.

    Ya'll must've conveniently forgot. Evan Fields was on every PED known to science and he ain't getting past VADA, let alone Usyk. Boxing gone global now and some folk be feeling real threatened by that. But ya'll make sure you keep crying those baba tears haters because when all is said and done this Lion, this King is the one who will be coming for your asses. Real talk

    I can’t wait to see Usyk do his victory battle scream while holding the WBC belt along with all his own after thoroughly beating Fury :D

    And you’re right… some folks on here hate the global aspect of boxing now and wish it was still the early 90’s :)

    Let's hope. Usyk is the greatest living human and a god among men

    Imagine hating on Usyk of all people? :facepalm: He's a truly great fighter, utterly fearless, wins his fights via clean boxing and zero cheating and deck stacking, and he's the nicest, classiest and most humble guy you could ever encounter. Not to mention funny as hell and a great character

    At heavy, Holyfield is just better (at roids). A 1992 Holyfield was jacked to **** on who know what. 25" neck & traps, Usyk is not hurting him for sure. That was the golden age of peds, Morrison was a roid Hulk too, and they all never failed a test.

    Holyfield was almost 40 years old and way past his prime while Byrd was 32 and still going strong. Holyfield in his prime beats the brakes off Byrd.

    I don`t don`t think Holy hit that hard compared to AJ, better fighter though all round.
