Alex Stewart WHIPPED Holyfield that night---brain damage to Evander

Cracking shots, skull-splitters really, that lead to Holyfield's mental condition deteriorating badly from that point on.

Holyfield took insane punishment in his career when you think about it.

Stewart could crack, he also beat up Foreman pretty bad

Evander Holyfield

May have taken more punches 'flush' than any other fighter above 190 lbs.

That 'thick neck' and 'heavy-skull' sure came in handy.

Evander Holyfield Claims His Quest For Severe Brain Damage Keeps Him Fighting

ATLANTA—Forty-six-year-old heavyweight boxer Evander Holyfield, who has taken hundreds of blows to the head in a career spanning more than 50 professional matches, told reporters Wednesday that he wouldn't stop fighting until a neurological examination reveals that he has acute brain damage. "When I can no longer speak clearly, or remember where I'm from, or what I what I what what, then I'll know it's time to hang up the gloves, but until then I think I want spaghetti for dinner with mushrooms and rubber-band sauce," said Holyfield, adding that his Dec. 20 bout with Russian Nikolai Valuev should put him one step closer to his dream of suffering irreparable tearing and lesions of the brain, and that he likes really big Ferris wheels. "I'm close. I can feel it—the tingling sensation in my hands, the bright lights that hurt my eyes. Maybe a few more [fights] after this one. Okay, Mom, I'm going to bed now. Bye-bye." Holyfield then rubbed the top of his right ear and asked reporters, "What the hell happened here?"
