For fans under 30...like Gandalf....i think
Would never know Holyfield for example had to earn respect.

Going into his fight with Riddick. .he was ridiculed.
Past it Michael Dokes, went the distance with Holmes and Forman ..fighters from a whole decade ago....and got a standing 8 count from Bert Cooper.

I remember vividly that Holy was called a blown up cruiserweight, not a real HW. Given the chance a young fighter will prove Holy aint a legit HW.

Bowe be that man....but Holy didnt get exposed. He literally had to lose a fight to gain respect.

The rest of his career was a testimony of a great HW.
