    Dempsey beats a sub 200 Holy, the same way he beats a +200 Holy, by knock out.

    Holyfield via decision if he comes through the Hellish moments he will undoubtedly face. He'll find his range and land the more accurate shots throughout, playing Matador to Demoseys bull and having success when he has to trade as well.

    Evander via close decision

    I can't envision Holyfield at some point not backing down from a brawl. Dempsey was brutal on the inside, and Holyfield's willingness to trade in the trenches would play to Dempsey's strengths, where Holyfield's handspeed and jab would be neutralized. I see Dempsey winning via a stoppage somewhere after rd 8.

    Holyfield blasted Qawi out iin 4 rounds (something everyone seems to forget).
    There's no way Dempsey would be so easy.

    You're wrong about Dempsey, BTW.

    You should not have wasted your vote on a sloppy caveman like Dempsey.

    This is the same former hobo who gets so much bloody credit for beating a very mediocre 38 year old giant Willard, who had been retired for 3 YEARS, was fat with a flabby beer-belly And trained on Beer And Beef Jerky to fight Dempsey. Still Dempsey needed a iron-bolt in his glove (or it might of been a railway-spike or horse-shoe) to batter the poor old fatty lardass as his knees lifted off the canvas, allowed by caveman rules of teh prehistoric period. Maybe to Dempsey's credit, (or just showing how **** fat old retired Willard was) he was only 175lbs at his best VS Shot Willard, but put 12lbs of weights in his shorts before stepping on teh scales. So you think a 175lb caveman from 1919 can beat a modern marvel cruiser Holyfield, who would be damn near 200lbs of solid muscle when rehydrated on fightnight. Holyfield is much faster with hands And feet, has way better combos And looks a shitload more skillful on film, fact. Dempsey also drew teh Colour-Line, he was terrified of fighting blackmen, who presented proper challenges, like Wills who would of whupped his racist ass. Prime Dempsey also LOST a 5 fight series to a morbidly obese ex-flyweight who never trained or did any roadwork ever And ate "whatever And whenever he wanted". Then there is a FIREMAN called Jim Flynn who KTFO a Prime Dempsey for serveral minutes. This guy was a part-time boxer And a total bum, coming off a big losing streak And sporting a nasty losing record!!

    Behold teh overrated king of cavemen sluggers -

    "With Dempsey still bent over and walking toward Flynn, both forearms and gloves covering his face, Flynn rushed again. The Pueblo battler gave Dempsey's head a quick shove toward his right and sent a short right hand hook through Dempsey's guard and straight to the point of the chin." (Salt Lake Telegram)

    "Dempsey was down 10 seconds in to the bout, and he remained on his back for twenty seconds."

    holy is one of the few fighters i would choose to beat a prime Dempsey. crisper shorter punches, has a high work rate, golden chin ad can fight for 15 easy. Dempsey i think is quick and a batterer but i think he is too open and his face first approach might be his undoing.

    got to be a holy decision.
