    Holyfield was in the best fights.

    Really don't see it as a contest, although there are the exciting non-greats like Bert Cooper.

    Lewis was a chess player but he could brawl too. Not a one dimensional fighter at all. Holyfield was exciting because he looked like an under dog in many of his best fights. The drugs question does linger so i have to go with Lewis (Mercer, Ruddock, Golota, Briggs, Grant were exceptional fights, Lewis made them exceptional)

    No one combination punched to the nutsack quite like a prime Andrew Golota. But entertaining punches to the genital region aside, i'd say Lennox.

    I think Holyfield was exciting to watch best of the 90s

    I think the 90s were all exciting!

    I mean you got guys like Lennox Lewis vs Mavrovic, Briggs, McCall etc.. all exciting fights.

    Holyfield vs Tyson, Bowe, Foreman etc.. exciting

    Golota vs Sanders, Bowe I and II, Nicholson, Grant etc.. exciting

    Maskaev vs Rahman I was always one of my favorite knockouts of all time. Im sure it is at least a top 5 best KOs in the 90s heavys imo. Along with Mercer vs Morison. Just watching it I felt like I got hurt! :lol:

    Tyson had his fights too vs Ruddock, Douglas(even tho he lost), Bruno etc..


    The 90s Pwnd so much.
