    Indeed. That was only Holy's 12th fight.
    Holyfield ended up in hospital and seriously considered giving up the sport.

    A little info on ralph Dupas, who fought this day years ago. I've read he was something to see, but I've never found any of his fights. 106-23 and he fought many good fighters.
