    Unlike Haye, Evander would press the issue and win a decision. Late stoppage would be possible but unlikely. Still Wlad would potentially deliver far more punishment to Evander than Tyson could have at that time and so Holy could be in jeopardy himself.

    But with Evander's chin and heart...he survives the rough moments to get the decision.

    Yep, Holyfield by decision or late stoppage. Years later, Holyfield had enough to give a FAR superior big man in Lewis a tough go in their rematch.

    Right, but you also don't know anything about boxing.

    He did give him a decent fight though. Wlad loses to THAT Holyfield, three or so years older than the Tyson version, by a lot.

    Really don't see Holyfield winning this one to be honest. Big guys who fight big and don't give many opportunities to land = nightmare for Holyfield
