It's May 2024, and I've been watching this fight every single week for the past 2 years. I'm old enough to remember when they first met in 1992, but studying it as an adult has been a day and night experience. Nobody today would be able to handle 1992 Holy and Bowe.

The heart and warriors spirit from Holyfield in this fight is something I will never forget, he originally started at cruiserweight, and if I’m not mistaken every guy he fought at heavyweight was heavier then him (I could be wrong) but the fact he could not only take big punches from them but also hurt them with his punches is crazy to me. He deserves so much more credit then guys like Tyson especially with his achievements

That was a brutal uppercut. HF was in zombieville, held up by the ropes from smashing to the canvas. How it’s possible to keep on fighting in that state is what makes him 1 in ten million. The fight could have gone either way. Evander never stopped firing, and Bowe just kept on coming, showing flashes of brilliance. But, that uppercut is like the one Marciano floored Jersey Joe Walcott with.

Close fight except the knockdown. Bowe looked a lot bigger than Evander just his height and reach,plus thirty pounds he wore Holyfield out as the rounds progressed .! The clinches , accumulative heavier punches made Riddick stronger in the latter half of the fight. While Evander’s punches were crisper and more accurate in the beginning it all caught up to him and was beaten by the bigger man. And I might add one of the few times that ever happened to him.!!! Heart 💜 like a LION a case of how much fight in the dog he never disappoints BRAVO EVANDER 👏👍🏻🇺🇸🥊🥊🥊😁

@danyoutube7491 5 ай бұрын

I don't think the height and reach of Bowe was often a big problem, Holyfield had the speed and timing to be slightly more effective in the early rounds with his jab than Bowe was, but the accumulation of punches from the heavier man wore Holyfield down as the fight progressed. Bowe also had more success with his jab when he followed it up with a right hand, though he didn't do that an awful lot even late in the bout.

Watching this FIGHT is just as painful today as it was back then, live. Bowe was supernatural this evening. And HOLYFIELD proved with blood and sweat that he has an undisputed place among the greatest heavyweight champions of all time. We almost cried when we saw him lose in agony at the end of this evening. A TRUE, FULL HEART WARRIOR. Their TRILOGY with Bowe drained him of at least 20 fights of vitality/stamina. But from Bowe's side it's about the same.
