I had it very close,but I gave it to Valuev.
Even if you give the couple of rounds that could have gone either way to Holyfield,you run in to this.
Your fighting the champ on his home turf,youd better win convincingly,and that did not happen for Holyfield.
Now if we can get this over with,somebody can book someone with Valuev that will finally get that circus out of town
perhaps I am missing something, but here goes...
5 total punches with three by Holyfield means two by Valuev, right?
3+2 = 5 right?
here's the tough part: 3-2=1. So there is a one punch difference between the fighters.
Also 3 is 50% bigger than 2. right? So in fact what we have is a one punch 50% difference between the fighters, not a two punch 40% difference.
I knew I went to school for something.
p.s. a two punch difference with 5 total punches is impossible

They said they would "look at film" that was awhile ago, how many times you gotta watch that shit? They just swept it under the rug, thats what they do....they haven't issued a statement on it as far as I know.
You base your conclusion on the assumption that Valuev lands ever punch he throws when in reality he couldn't make contact with Holyfield, where as holyfield landed nearly all of the 5 punches he threw each round.
So yes, a two punch landing difference IS possible with five total punches thrown.
Ahhh, so clearly I misinterpreted your numbers then. That happens with statistics, don't it? cheers.
p.s., not too sure about that prime Tyson theory of yours. I don't believe you can dicredit a theory by attacking those who believe it as young and naive. Some of us guys who think prime tyson was a monster are in fact knowledgeable fans.![]()

uppercuts just trying to dig himself out of a hole thats just too big for him, please ignore him.
The kind of guy that takes the opinion of broadsheet journalists looking to fill a page with a bit of controversy way too seriously rather than his own opinion.
If you think evander won the fight thats cool, it was a very close fight
if however you think he won all 12rounds you clearly know nothing about boxing!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh way to contradict me by bringing up an entirely different argument on another thread and bringing it onto here.
Not only does that give me the impression youve accepted the "holyfield won all 12rounds" was just plain silly but that your pety enough to resort to childish remarks like that![]()

The first time I watched it I had 9 rounds to 3 Holyfield. When I turned the sound down I had a round difference making it 8 to 4 for Holyfield. No doubt in my mind Holyfield was robbed.
