Not relevant?
He dropped a scandalous decision to Valuev just weeks ago, he's relevant enough to compete with the top heavies.
1;
Holyfield believes that he can still be Unified world Heavyweight Champion.
We don't take this opinion seriously, then why take his opinion about Louis seriously?
2;
As a heavyweight, Holyfield is actually bigger than Joe.
He has actually fought better competition than Joe has in Tyson, Lewis, Bowe etc.
Given the evolution in size, one could also take Holyfield's cruiser wins into account.
Joe was taken out badly by Marciano and Schmeling, outjabbed by Conn and troubled by some mediocre fighters.
With Holyfields chin, anything COULD happen.
Although I would insert the Bomber as favourite, this hypothetical fight could be a pick em.
