    Fury is really big but doesn’t pack a big punch for his size. Holyfield had very respectable power for someone undersized as a heavyweight. Who has better one punch power?

    Holyfield all day. I love rewatching old Holyfield fights, the way he would go to war. The dude was a warrior.
    Fury is boooring! the only fight where he showed any power or was entertaining was the 2nd fight with Wilder

    For their size, I'd have to say Holyfield. Strange thing about Holy tho, is at times he looked like he hardly had any heavyweight power then in other fights he'd put Bowe, Mercer and Tyson down.

    It is. Look at Holyfield v Stewart. Tyson, Foreman and Moorer had him down, Foreman albeit couldn't keep him down, but Holyfield really threw everything at him and never really looked as impressive.

    P4p Probably Holyfield, but as it stands, Fury can use that 270lb to do real damage when he sits down on his shots. 210lb Holy might look the more spectacular puncher, but I’d say Fury hits harder for sure

    Without question Holyfield. He was a great puncher at crusier, which carried up with good-decent results at heavyweight. He hurt plenty of granite guys.

    Fury, on the other hand, has and always will be a featherfist, who happens to weigh 270lbs

    I’d say Holyfield and against a much higher level of opposition too

    Holyfield was a better combination puncher and committed more to his shots. Hard to tell if he really hit hardedr.

    Are we talking Slick Fury or Kronk Fury? ;)

    Holyfield was a combination puncher who really put meat into his shots.

    When Fury does decide to sit down on his shots, he can crack
