I thought Amir Khan was rightfully deducted against Peterson because excessive pushing is the same as excessive holding.
But many disagree.
Floyd probably commited more fouls in the majority of his fights a 140+ and has never had a point deduction. He's just far more cute about it, Amir was pretty blantantly disregarding the rules vs LP.

He was. I remember I bet a guy in the late 80's, $50 that if they ever fought, Holyfield would win. He thought I was nuts. Holyfield wasn't afraid, and didn't allow Tyson to bully and intimidate him. Tyson in my eyes was much dirtier than Holyfield.

I don't actually dispute whose better to be honest. I'll admit I was a tyson fan, but I can't seriously say he's better than Holyfield and be taken seriously. Holyfield was incredible fighter.
Just my take on the dirtyness topic. Tyson was an idiot and not in control emotionally, so if he were to foul you it was something blatant and stupid. Holyfield was clever, could lead with his head etc but was too cute with it
Just my take
