Let me say this...while I don't like Holyfield & I do think that he's way past it...he fought the best opposition at his time & that in itself cancels out the fact that he's overratted.

Holyfield faced & defeated Tillman, Mercer, Bowe, Holmes, Foreman, Stewart, Rahman, Oquendo, Tyson, Moorer, & drew with Lennox Lewis.

He lost to Ruiz, Byrd, Lewis, Bowe, Donald, Moorer, & Ibragimov.

Most of his losses he succesfully rematched or atleast tried.

Not a bad list...win, lose, or draw.

Surely not overratted.

He's been in some of the greatest fights in history & continues to be a role model & symbol of what our great champions should embody...the problem is that he just does'nt know when to quit.

Some Knowledge For That A**??

Well...it depends on how you veiw the knowledge.

Bringing up his record does'nt really educate unless you view how he lost & the fact that he did avenge the one's that would give him the opportunity.
