Do you know what Holyfield's record as a HEAVYWEIGHT is??






































24 wins
9 losses (that's not a type-o, he really does have 9 losses )
2 draws




Wow! 24-9-2





Has there ever been a more overrated fighter in the history of boxing??

Nope.


















































Hail Sultan!
If Holyfield is that overrated what does that make Mike Tyson or Lennox Lewis ??

What does it say about the following all time great heavyweights that beat this "legend?"


John Ruiz

Michael Moorer

Getting TKO'd by James Toney

Larry Donald

Chris Byrd

Sultan Ibragimov



In case you didn't notice................

That list (I omitted Riddick Bowe because I feel that he actually was an all time great heavyweight in his prime) isn't exactly a list of top heavyweights, yet they all managed to beat up on Holyfield.






Tyson was incredibly shot after his prison stint. People who actually follow the sport (not bandwagon jumpers like you) know this.



And Lennox Lewis (who I have also said is overrated many times in the past) accounted for 1 of his draws and 1 of his astonishing 9 losses, so I don't see where you're headed with that.



wait a minute here. Your trying to say that Evander isnt a legend because he has lost a lot of fights as an old man? So does that mean that Muhammad Ali isnt a legend because as an old man he got beat off Berbick? Also Tyson got taught a boxing lesson (before he went to prison) off Buster Douglas who Evander destroyed. Michael Moorer beat him on a bad night (when he was having heart trouble), but what happened in the rematch? How many times was Moorer put on the floor? Lennox got an ageing Holyfield and Riddick Bowe well in the second match wasn't he on the verge of being knocked out when he got saved by the most bizzarre thing ive ever seen in boxing?
