This man boxed professionaly from 1984 to 2011 put SOME RESPECT ON HIS NAME.

The Real Deal A Boxing Warrior

I still don't think Fury will get in the ring with Usyk. He knows he will lose

Something about Holyfield backing Usyk really brings a smile to my face

Bowe, Tyson, Lewis, Holyfield what an era. Even the 2nd and 3rd tier of Moorer, Mercer, Morrison, Ruddock etc were good.

Usyk is going to beat Fury on points. He literally throws 2-3x the punches Fury does, He is going to get a boxing lesson. Trust me it's coming.

Matchroom casuals won't know who evander holyfield is

I think Usyk can pull it off!

Nothing but respect for Evander Holyfield. 👊🏿

Another one of the old generation of great, credible and respectful boxers

Evander looking great in his 50's. Top fighter. Top man.

A legend. Great to see him looking well. Good interview too , good questions.

Absolutely correct. Your era was much richer in terms of talent. Fury loves to pretend he’s not interested in legacy, but never wastes an opportunity to tell us he’s the GOAT😂. I wonder if he actually believes his own hype. He must realise there have been at least 10 hw in last 3 decades who’d have beaten him easily

Good interview..

This is one of those fights where almost every outcome seems feasible: Fury on points, Usyk on points, a draw, Fury by stoppage. Usyk by stoppage seems the only unlikely possibility. But Usyk can definitely outwork Fury. Comes down to whether or not Fury can catch him with big shots and hurt him. I'm leaning towards Usyk via close decision.

Great man!!

Usyk is one very cool dude, the definition of the ‘silent assassin’ . He’s always in control of his emotions inside & outside the ring and very patient during a fight. He’ll use the first few rounds to unlock Fury’s weaknesses and then take him to school. That said, Usyk could win 8 of the 12 rounds only to be on the receiving end of a controversial draw. His only real hope of being crowned the ‘Undisputed champion’ on the night is to either force a stoppage or KO the big arrogant dosser!

It's gonna be an interesting fight between Fury and Usyk. Looking forward to seeing how it plays out.

Fury versus Usyk needs a strong referee. If Fury isn't allowed to smother and isn't properly conditioned he's likely to lose on points by a decent margin. Usyk won't go for a stoppage victory. He'll work out the angles needed after 2 then will land shots. as he closes the space before throwing his straight left Fury will struggle to avoid the shot. Usyk on points for me.

Evander is one of the all time greats, imagine if he were in his prime today lmao

We all love Evander. Health and happiness to him.

Ngannou straight in the rankings at 10 is a fucking insult to every heavyweight paying wbc sanctioning fees

And you were the best Evander for your little time. Truly great.

This is the most well spoken Holyfield has sounded in years. That's great to hear.

Evander is a nice guy- you can just see it. Props!

The real deal holyfield!

You should ask holyfield why he got his doctor to send steriods to a house under his moms name!

Amazing how he had long career with so many wars at cruiserweight heavyweight super human 😊

The Real deal - respect !!! one of top 3 boxing greatest personalities!!! Bless him

good to see evander well man. he's a really trooper. and yeah you can tell he's rooting for the smaller guy - as he was also one himself.

Holyfield is a monster legend🎉

If there’s one reason why usyk could possibly beat Fury apart from his skill set it’s his hunger… Usyk stays hungry he wants this bad.

Legend of my Era

Kudos to Holyfield, he made Mike Tyson look average in their bouts. None of the heavyweights of today could compete in his era, thanks to Joshua for bringing recognition to the heavyweight division

I agree with Holyfield. Tyson fury is quick (for a heavyweight) but Usyk is used to cruiserweight and heavyweights so will see him in slow motion. Neither has the power to hurt the other one so I see it going to points and Usyk will win

Taking something for granted, he said. I would be reading the print off the next fighter. Due diligence. Man City did due diligence and cleaned up.

Evander always looking smart - that white shirt is fire! Hell of a fighter too🥊

Fury needs to come in a atine lighter than he did v ngannou to deal with usyks speed.

Very mixed opinions for the Usyk vs Fury fight. It's one of those few fights difficult to predict.

Mike Tyson bit Down on your ear and that effected your sense of logic

GOAT

These fights can be unpredictable, it is going to be curious to observe the exchange. The big strong slow puncher, verses the much smaller quick moving tapper.

Real deal

Totally agree with The legend Evander that his era was better. Totally blessed to have seen that era and watch the fights. This era is 🗑 ! Evander was so good and so tough he bullied the great Mike Tyson and beat him. That era was amazing including one of the best ever in Lennox Lewis, Riddick Bowe, Mike Tyson, Frank Bruno, Shannon Briggs, Ray Mercer, Tommy Morrison (rip), George Foreman… oh man it was a blast 💥

Sorry but he also backed Wilder to beat Fury in the 2nd fight. His words are best served with a pinch of salt.

Telling it like it is...

Evader was a bad mfer back in his day the way he dismantled a prime Mike Tyson the way he did. Made Tyson look like a coward. He knows how good Usyk is

Close your eyes and it's Huell from better call Saul.

Well, the last i heard, David beat Goliath not the other way round

I agree. I will be backing uysk by late ko

Holyfield prediction about Joshua & parker was almost💯 if Usyk beat Fury, then Holyfield is a GOAT both in & outside the Ring. Salute!

What a great champion Evander Holyfield & lennox Lewis absolute legends in the sport & great Ambassadors.

& who do you think would win between Wilder & Usyk Evander? 'Oh I thenk Deontay just too strong...'

Thumbnail class looks like he is doing a big 12inch joby

Holyfield hated the question about making a comeback, especially after what happened recently against Vitor Belfort. The only reason old boxers are getting back in the ring is because they're broke.

Fury is pulling out the February fight , I will bet any man on this and twice on a Sunday, any takers ?

Real recognises real

Holyfield is an all time. Fury is a never was..

And that's why the fight will never happen! I'm just waiting for an injury or "mental health" excuse to come out.

Evander predicts fights like David Haye. He predicted wilder beats fury 3 times😂

Bernard’s a great fighter 😂

Fury would be out worked…😂

EH in his prime beats all the moderns only Usyk or Fury could put up a fight

Proof you can't have a bad day in the office

he's not wrong

Pls pls listen to Holyfield, he’s right and it’s going to happen , lump,on 💵💵💵💵💵💵🥊🥊🥊👍👍

The Real Deal from Bama !

If Usyk is able to avoid body shots n clinching he’s gonna win , but he need to keep doing it for 12 rounds straight

Even fury knows the faster man has a great chance to cause him a lot of problems 👑

Tyson will lean on him and tire him out and either finish him later rounds or take it on points.

I’m was a huge fan of Tyson Fury, but he’s treated his fans like mugs, and an Usyk win would be good for the sport. Tyson and Frank Warren are bad for boxing.

Money£$ is what entices a fighter back

Nice way of putting ur era was levels above this shit era in the heavyweight most of these heavyweights now wouldn't make top 15 in holyfield era

When people finally realize how insanely overrated Fury is and that Usyk is the true master boxer it'll be a great day in boxing. This is a 75/25 fight. Usyk by a wide ud and Fury's only real chance is if they let him choke Usyk out.

Tyson the name is never going to get props from this guy

Evander backs Usyk. Very similar career paths perhaps?

I think Usyk tires Fury out eith body shots ad gets him counted out

For me holyfield is the best to ever lace them up.

Fury is usually the fastest and most skillful man in the ring. He loses both of those attributes against usyk.

Fury will train like it's his last paycheck that makes him a dangerous fighter

Tyson Fury has the strategy of bullying ,roughing and tiring his opponents with his massive weight during the holding and clinching. Nganou was able to overcome it because of his huge size and MMA background. USYK is a small man. And does not have that lethal punch capable of dropping Tyson Fury. And yet he wil not be given the space to land many punches.

I don't see one aspect of boxing that fury is better at. Admittedly I'm no boxing expert. But from where I sit, fury does not have fast enough hands to give usyk problems. Usyk evaded most of AJ's shots and his hands are way faster and his punches are way straighter. Which brings me to my next point, furies inside work is too wide. Even his at range punches are pretty wide. If you look at the Francis fight. I think it's a bad night for Tyson fury and I think he's about to look foolish. I could be wrong but I don't see a world where he beats usyk. Unless it's a lucky punch, but I don't think he can knock him out. You know AJ hits harder and AJ did land some shots. Then when you take into account that Tyson goes ham on the food and other destructive habits in between fights and usyk is a role model of discipline, hard for me to see Tyson winning. But I'm just one dumb guy on KZfaq. Definitely not pretending to be a boxing expert for the internet so I could be way wrong

Usyk going to have to be a lot faster otherwise he might aswell not bother turning up he aint fighting bodybuilder joshua

Tyson fury is to slow for usyk and usyk can take Tyson’s punches my moneys on usyk

If fury was fighting when evander holyfield was in his prime evander would knock tyson fury out Evander would be too much class for tyson fury and fury would have real problems in with the real man of boxing

The rabbit will disapprove a lot of people. If this fight happens only USYK will be on top regardless.

The slow cabagging effect is 20% in a effect.

Holyfeild would beat all the current heavyweights easy

Get ready for a masterclass in the art of boxing tyson is not goner try to bully usyk kronk style wasn't just about power look at Lewis and klitscko the taller man will box at range use the jab as a jamrod an people forgetting fury is the best at fighting at range when he was with Peter fury or Ben Davis we wud not be asking if or who wins we wud be asking what round would usky trainer throw the towel in 🎉🎉🎉

Ngannou showed that Power and size is the key to beating Fury. Wilder showed that Speed does little to stopping Fury.

evander in his prime would knock any fighter out today..fact! and i wana say..iron mike tyson in this era would destroy them all easy!!

Ys. USYK WIN

usyk will drop fury for sure...fury has the weekest chin in hw division

Tyson will flaten usyk

The hate for fury makes me laugh. Holyfiled has never liked fury anyway so no suprise he picks usyk. Usyk too fast? Timing beats speed. Fury will look to fight usyk and get the win

I'll always respect Holyfield but can't but think that Fury vs Usyk will be very similar to the first Bowe vs Holyfield fight.

What the hell is holyfeild talking about!furys faster then usyk!

Yes a stronger era. Where the elite to lost to bums.

A whole lot of nothing from these Fly-by Nights!

Best baseball player ever to play the game..
