Just Finished Watching Holyfield Vs Moorer again

Damn I forgot about the beating Moorer sustained... Holy was just a different Breed, the 1st KD was priceless just as the announcers were saying this could be the fight Holy finally gets old and Moorer was Holyfields silver bullet then Moorer just stunned Holy with a right and drove him into the ropes and then landed a few punches, and then right on que after the announcers were talking ish, Holy waffles him with a right hand and almost took his head off..

Thats what made Holyfield great was the war of attricion, he would take fighters places mentally and physically they didnt want to go, then he would drown them

Cause butting never happens when a southpaw and unorthodox fighter square off.... ::** Kinda like the time King Kong Bundy Broke Your Sternum ;D

I'm just kiddin with you. I love Holyfield as much as the next guy, he's the greatest HW of the 90's and a true warrior.

I know, I'm messing with you only cause I'm still a huge Hulk Hogan fan and I like throwing the Hogan digs in ;D

Holyfield is a dirty fighter

I'm quite sure he showers ;)

all the tyson advocates cry about the headbutting...holy was never known for headbutting until he fought tyson...and if holy was dirty then tyson was filthy

LOL ;D

I love the end of the fight when Pacheco interviews Moorer and says something like "You were really getting beat in there, you looked off your game blah blah", then Moorer cuts him off and is kind of gets in his face and says,"But I still got up and fought though dog" staring at him " I still got up and fought"Pachecho, does a 180 and starts saying "Yes, yes you did you were a great warrior." Lol I thought Moorer was gonna hit em for a sec..he was in that just k.o.'d daze still kinda shellshocked a bit.

Bullshit. Just like he did in their second fight huh?

i agree Holy won the second. it is rarely talked about b/c the first fight was such a travesty, but both the Ring and AP had Holyfield winning the second fight. The first decision was so bad that Evander would have had to KO LL to get the win

He did win the second fight 8)

Lewis beat Evander at his own game in the rematch. Just plain outboxed him in the 1st .

Moorer- Holy 2 is one of my favourite fights . People forget Evander was rocked in the 1st round of that fight by a right hook . Then he came back firing at Moorer , dropping him 5 times . Great fight. Great finish

He fought a passive fight. He knew that he would get a makeup decision and wasn't going to risk actually having to scrap with Holy...one of the worst decsions I've ever seen

cc. Evander was a fighter that made everyone rise up their game .. an opponent knows going in, that Evander is coming in correct. Holyfield is a rare breed of Heavyweight that is willing and able to stay in the pocket keeping a solid offense going. even at 45 years old Evander can beat anyone of today’s HW champions no question .

Lewis was robbed vs Holy in first fight 2nd fight could of gone either way it was so close i think there was only like 1 point in it when i last see it.

I had Evander winning the second match . showed a bit more in the rematch . I thought Lewis won the 1st match also

I will have to watch rematch again i remember it being close but the thing i can't understand Lewis clearly won first meeting yet they scored that draw yet in rematch which was razor thin close they scored that for Lewis quite comfortably i will never understand the judges.

judges often watch the ring card girls and fuck about... from time to time you will see eraser marks and so forth.. no reason for that.. I prefer me fist to be the judges .

I watched that 1st fight at a pub and had to be somewhere in a hurry so left before the decision was announced thinking Lewis was a comfortable winner. Then later I saw the result and was blown away, couldn't believe it.

With Holyfield though, I think another stat was introduced - the "Head Jab". He seems to be ahead in this stat in most fights. hee hee hee.

Personally i thought lewis won both but on the second time they fought he didn't win by as much as the judges said he did but i don't think holyfield was robed or anything like that.

Lewis won both fights. If anyone was robbed, it was Lewis for sure.
