    I live near the cemetery that serves as Marty Marshall's final resting place. Well, about 30 minutes away.

    But when Holyfield fought Tyson, he was 6'2 at a chiseled 218 pounds, so he wasn't the smaller man on that night.

    So a fighter that's pretty much a novice as a pro, that has
    fought no one on the level of some of Tyson's top ten
    opponents , a natural Lt.heavy or cruiser, and hasn't
    done ANYTHING at heavyweight is somehow
    going to compete with Tyson.... OK.

    I haven’t seen enough of Usyk at heavyweight to make any convictions one way or the other.

    Yeah but the guy’s already 33 years old.How much of an improvement or potential do you think he still has? Holyfield was like 26 when he moved up to heavyweight and had plenty of time to adapt and improve at the heavier weight.
