Holyfield had an amazing career (wish he'd retired a long time ago though). He could punch at Heavyweight alright. Ask Tyson, Bowe etc. etc. etc.

He may have been 14 1/2 st to 15 1/2 st but he was "carved out of granite" at that weight. He had hand speed, technique, great movement, power, chin, massive heart and a champion's mentality. Which is why he had the career he had. There were better fighters at the time "on their day" but overall I think he deserves to go down as one of the best ever.

There isn't the competition around today that could compare with the best fighters of the 90s in the HW division.
