Holyfield vs Frazier who wins
Collapse

This has to be one of the closest match ups out there..
Holy has the better chin, but I'd say Frazier punches harder..
Both have incredible heart, so it has to be decided on styles..
Holy's resume is better than Fraziers, but he did have some uncomfortable moments against Bert Cooper & DMQ, who are both similar, but not as good as Frazier..
However, Quawi was at CW, and Cooper was a surprise midnight hour replacement for (I can't ***in remember lol) but Holy (who wasn't prime then) had obviously trained for someone completely different.. (can anyone tell me who it was??)
Taking all of this into cosideration, I'd predict a 12 round war, full of KD's, cuts and all sorts, with Holyfield taking either a split decision or a majority draw..

I believe Damiani was WBO champ, but for some strange reason, opted to get battered by Ray Mercer, instead of making a unification attempt..
Have you any input on this?

In the Mercer fight, Damiani was winning the fight easily for eight rounds until an uppercut broke his nose in the 9th round.

Originally posted by TheGreatA View PostDamiani had actually lost the WBO title (meaningless at the time) to Mercer before he was supposed to be the replacement for Tyson in the Holyfield fight. Cooper was the second replacement when Damiani injured himself and took the fight on less than a week's notice.
In the Mercer fight, Damiani was winning the fight easily for eight rounds until an uppercut broke his nose in the 9th round.
Damiani was quite a good boxer actually, and you're right, it was only one punch that did the damage.. I was getting confused with the McCall fight, in which a past prime Damiani did get battered (broken nose again, I think)..
