Holy is without question the top 10 heavyweight great that Usyk would have the best chance against. If Holy could shit the bed against Moorer, then he could also lose to Usyk. However, I think about how wicked Holy's body attack was, and how vulnerable Usyk is downstairs, and I make Holy the favorite. Usyk is a live dog though.
If it’s the Holyfield who showed up against Moorer the first time, I’d take Usyk to win a decision. Holy at his best, I think gets to Usyk at some point and KOs him mid to late rounds. Holy had a tendency to make fights harder than they had to be(Bert Cooper, for example), so Usyk isn’t without chance. I’d still favor Holy, though.
Still on the fence between the two. Holyfield wins the brawling game while Usyk boxes his ears off. It’s a matter of who can impose their will. Heart says Holyfield but brain tells me Usyk.
Holy, at both weights. There aren't more than three fighters at CW I pick over Holy, and Usyk isn't one of them. At HW, it's more debatable, but beating a fat cunt and a boxbot doesn't persuade me that he beats a man who beat Tyson and gave Lewis plenty to think about. MTF
