How highly do u rate Holyfield?

Holyfield is in my top ten, I think the fact that he was not a natural heavyweight combined with some of the problems he had to overcome, he had a great career.

I also count his wins over Tyson as a proper win, as Evander had just got over a heart condition, had 3 savage and damaging fights with Bowe and still managed to dominate Tyson for most of the fight.

You've also got to think of the guys he stepped in the ring with, people often applaud Froch for the list of people he has stepped in the ring with, well look at Holyfield! The guy has the best heavyweight boxing opponent list of the last 20 years.
