How would 80's Evandor Holyfield do against the current Cruiserweights

I don't see him doing what everyone thinks.. He's slow on the draw in the heavies. Cruisers would be even faster and though they are not as big there is no substitute for age. I think he's a little punchy. If he fights the top guys in the Cruiser weight class he gets beat by dec or late stoppage.

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




CC very well said...Thats what makes legends and P4P greats!!!

Still not sure why you gave me an SC- you made alot of noise without specifically saying why.
Regardless you are wrong.

And I will teach you all a lesson. David Haye beats Holyfield because he is faster and a better technical boxer while also possessing greater power.

Mormeck is just as good if not greater than any opponent Holyfield ever faced.

David Haye after Lennox is the next truly great fighter this planet will witness.

I think I did explain why somewhere but just in case I didn't....It has to do with the comparison of Holyfield and Haye.....Just like you stated in your last post....You are actually trying to say Haye is a better fighter at CW thne Evander was.....That is CRAZY...WTF has Haye accomplished? Seriously what?...If you would have said Mormeck or Bell then at least you could have a sound arguement...you are just using your opinion as a fan not with actual boxing knowledge...Just because you like a guy does not make him greater then an established legend.......Haye has never even been in the ring with a guy of Holyfields caliber....Hell he has never even sparred with a guy like Holyfield.....

If you had stated that you think Haye has the potential to be greater then Evander, that would have been different but you stated he was better then Holly was....the guy has not even held world title gold yet......stating he is faster and a better technical boxier is crap....

His stamina sucks,,and all around boxing skills are not that great sorry to say..and Evander at CW was a pretty hard puncher in his own right.....

Even if I did acknowledge the fact Haye was faster a better boxer and stronger which I don't..All Evander would do if that was the case is bring Haye to war and that would be that....NO F'IN WAY HAYE BEATS HOLYFIELD IN A TOE TO TOE WAR!!!!

I should give you another SC for even mentioning Haye in the same breath as Lennox....Again that shows you speak as a fan not as a guy using boxing knowledge

Haha this was a blast from the past and Haye has got better and defeated two opponets since; Mormeck and Maccarinelli.
Pity Haye's weight problems mean he can't stick around as he might have challenged for Holyfields top spot.

As for comparing Haye to Lennox I still stand by that and that is as Lennox Lewis No.1 fan.;D

the real deal would clean up the division again, at crusier he was the boss, great energy workrate, solid chin, and a solid punch with good skills which he left behind when he went up, true number 1 the division has had
