    They could probably fight each other right now

    Vitali by UD. Holy was easy to hit and prime Vitali had an excellent workrate. Vitali would backpedal when Holy would try to close the gap which would prevent Holy from going to work. Holy might find success in later rounds, and Vitali might be worse for wear at the end, but Vitali would be definitively ahead on the cards from landing more punches.

    Vitali rarely loses rounds, he throws a lot of punches, we even saw that against elite competition namely Lewis, , he may cut Vitali, but i am sure Vitali would probably most of the time UD Holyfield.

    I've always thought Holyfield would do well against the Klitschko brothers. Close fight, Holy win for me.

    It'd be a great, great fight. I could see either winning a hardfought decision. It's as pickem as a fight gets.

    This is how I see it. Vitali via UD.

    Holyfield had issues with big guys who can fight in Lewis or Bowe. In truth, Vitali is more active than either Bowe or Lewis, had a better chin, and based on his style, is even harder to catch clean.

    Easy one to predict.

    Vitali win on points unless he cuts bad.

    I am having a very difficult picking the outcome to this....I don't want to be the guy that picks a draw in a hypothetical, but for right now that is the pick I am the most comfortable with...

    Over 15 rather than 12 I will fall off the fence on the side of Louis, but I wouldn't feel comfortable with that pick at all.

    Holyfield UD.

    Simply better, good workrate, Vitali can't fight well on the inside and can't keep it on the outside.

    Wouldn't the headbutts end the fight prematurely?
