Tyson VS Holyfield in 91

Who would have won and why?

[Britkid]

At the time I fought Holyfield was made for Tyson and Mike would have won a war in about six rounds.

With 20 odd years of hindsight, I think the evidence suggests Holyfield would have gone punch for punch and foul for foul with Tyson, slowly gaining an edge and winning a decision.

Holyfield mentally was stronger, and Tyson's life was falling apart at the time.

No way Tyson was already quite burned out by the time that fight woulda took place let's say Fall 1991, Holyfield was a lean mean sleek high-speed machine with stamina to boot. Holyfield woulda sliced Tyson to pieces by the 8th or 9th. Stoppage.

As inconsistent as he was a champion, a fired-up and healthy Holyfield is the about the only guy that I think genuinely presents problems for just about any fighter going - past, present or future.

It pains me to say that He'd beat any version of Tyson - one way or another, probably 4 times outta 5.

Judging how Mike would have fared against Evander based on how their eventual fight went is as unfair as judging how Louis would have done against Marciano.

Mike had one the heavyweight title 10 years before and had an enforced break of 4 years thrown in. He just wasnt the same boxer.

So he is not allowed to ask the question ?
