Lewis
Are some of you guys even suggesting that Lewis would have beaten a prime Holyfield?! Get real!!!!! In both of their fights an old Holyfield (especially fight 2) gave him problems and this was a man unable to throw any combos without catching his breath. A peak Holyfield would have been too busy, too macho and his great chin would have taken a wide decision, even KO'd Lewis late on. The 1992 Riddick Bowe that beat Holyfield in an awesome contest would have KO'd Lewis. That version of Bowe showed that he was one of, if not the best Heavyweight of the 90's. Forget the unmotivated Bowe, the fit, focused Bowe was awesome.
