Joe Louis vs Evander Holyfield

Interesting clash this one.

I'll go with Louis by decision.

 

Excellent fight. I'd go with Louis, too... but a peak Holyfield is not an easy night for anyone. Would be a lot of fun.

 

Absolutely.

Evander was always bringing it and he was fast, good workrate, chin and decent power.

 

More or less agree, except in the later rounds I think Louis takes over with command for a late stoppage. Id be interested to see how Louis' offense impacts Holyfield. Thinking it wouldve told eventually.

 

Louis UD

 

Louis by unanimous decision in a good one...

 

Louis, but it isn't easy.

 

No heavyweight beats a prime Joe Louis.

Louis KO 8.

 

What about Tom Johnson?

 

::::

 

Really, you don't see a young Tyson, Riddick Bowe, or Lennox beating Louis?

 

I'm not sure Louis can win a decision here. I think it's Louis by stoppage or Holy by decision personally. Evander's movement and counter punching would cause Louis allot of problems. Holy's tendency to fight back when hurt may be his undoing at some point, but it's an interesting one.

Louis KO 11/ Holy W 15.

 

Evander has boxing ability but you know as well as I that at heart he is a brawler. Plus Louis had underrated boxing skills himself. It wouldn't take too long for Louis' power to force Evander to just go to war and Louis could indeed win a decision in a war.
