I couldn't care less about who beat the better fighters here.It's not as if either are arguably unproven against quality fighters like a Ricardo Lopez. Both beat many solid fighters so i'll go with the guy who just looked straight up better to me and that's Hagler. Holyfield had some awesome tools, but zero finesse, less versatility and was a worse ring-general than Hagler, who himself was not a great ring-general imo.
Hagler's best fights were with men who moved up. I know Hagler had a tough road to the top, but if you are too dominant in your weight class, you should move up, like Duran and Robinson, etc. Evander rose up in weight himself and there should have been the first 5 time heavyweight champ (he got robbed in the Valuev fight). Evander for me.
Holyfield 4 mi 2 4d rizons olredy menshend in de tred sach ez : muving ap in w8 ez opowzd 2 faiting ppl muving ap in w8 , faiting vs tafer kompetishen , etc .
But textually? I think I might prefer using a speaker phone to a keyboard when communicating with Frank.
about bowe.. the fan-man saved him from a ko, tko vs holyfield imo tough call. maybe hagler, but it's very close. holyfield was consistently facing weight and youth (minus foreman and holmes) disadvantages. 'can't see anybody else doing something like what he did (move up from cruiser and actually make a mark like that at heavyweight) for a very, very long time.
