Agreed; and I wouldn't be surprised if he could it right now either.

The current lot of Cruiserweights are probably the best interms of depth in the division.
Holyfield would beat them all apart from David Haye who would knock him out.

Haye knocking out Holyfield ?? don't make me laugh Holyfield had one of the best chins of all time at Cruiserweight and Heavyweight plus his workrate was amazing at Cruiserweight and his Stamina was also amazing at Cruiserweight did you see his workrate in first Qawi fight ?? Haye was huffing and puffing against Giacobbe Fragomeni in a up and downer in which he was in huge trouble at one point and was also huffing and puffing only after 4 rounds against 40 year old Carl Thompson which Haye lost Holyfield would make mince meat of Haye and stop him in 5 rounds.

I have to give you an SC for that comment.....Because to make that comment it tells me one of two things....Either you know nothing of CW div or Holyfield before his HW years OR...You are a big fan of Haye and are looking past boxing knowledge just to hype your guy up...either way it was a dumb ass comment.....

At CW Holyfield was in his absolute prime and a menace....Haye would not even make it a competitive bout for more then 3 or so rounds

3 rounds come on- let's not get silly. My comment was maybe tongue in cheek but at the sametime I was watching Holyfields very impressive march through the Cruiserweights He beat and I watched at the time; Tillman and Rickey Parkey etc - he beat them impressively but they are hardly the stuff of legends.

David Haye has judgement day against Mormeck coming up. Mormeck is a worthy champion and very good fighter - if Haye wins that which is not certain then I rest my case.

You gave me a sad click for an opinion - fine upto you, my opinion is not yours and in life you have to accept that others will not have the same opinion.

He would win, but some of them would rock him with a few shots, Evander didn't have the chin or defense he had in the heavyweights yet.

Evander at his best would hold his own against anyone at Cruiserweight or Heavyweight in any era . My opinion Evander is #1 Cruiser of all time, and one of the Top 5 Heavy's of all time . Evander made everyone at HW fight better. opponents came in correct, they knew they had to be at their very best condition to have a chance, that’s respect. when you can make people around you better, just by being who you are. .. that’s something special. !

Make no mistake the SC was not for your opinion I respect everyones opinion...It was for suggesting that Haye beat Holyfield!!!!.......

I never give an SC for an honest opinion....Even one I do not agree with....

If you said Holyfield sucked as a cruiserweight I would have just said you are crazy....

It's nothing personal
