As a huge Tyson fan, I always disliked Holyfield. But watching this made me realize I had no reason to hate the guy, he's actually a great boxer. Thank you for opening my eyes. I regret only realising my blindness this late, but it's better late than never I guess.
@@benrobbo2902 yes, only you are a true boxing fan. The rest of us are fakes. Someone bring this guy a medal and a cookie. You have no idea why I disliked him, don't go making judgment without knowing the circumstances.
I always liked him but the only thing I disliked about him that I wish was mentioned in this video was the intentional head butting that he would do in his fights.
Reporter to Usyk "your the best cruiser weight since Evender Holyfield, Usyk reply was "I will never be that good Holyfield is a legend". Respect right there, also shout out to Usyk for returning home to fight for his country.
I dunno why people dont talk about him in the same way they do with other greats...the guy was not really a heavyweight...yet he never ducked anyone and went to war with everyone..i dont get it? 100% legend!

@@DrBeauHightower he beat Holyfield?😂. I’m sure you didn’t mean it. He’s definitely one of the greats. I remember watching his Tyson fights when I was in college and both times all our girlfriends were pissed because they had sorority events and none of us would leave the house because of the crazy fights…
He didnt. He had a shoulder issue and it played up in the fight, then he was over medicated for it after the fight and that caused a problem with his heart.
Phenomenal documentary for 'The Real Deal' himself. Holyfield deserves to be mentioned and praised alongside the greatest heavyweights in history and not merely as the greatest Cruiserweight of all-time-as great as an accolade that already is. Evander had it all: He was highly skilled and technical in his approach to dismantling bigger guys than him and there was no 'wasted' punch when he fights. Every punch he threw-whether be it a jab or a haymaker-was thrown with power and precision. People could say all that they want about his style but he definitely earned his place in the hall of fame with pure heart, hardwork, and determination from start to finish. Truly, he is one of the greatest to ever lace up a pair of gloves. Thank you so much for this, Joseph Vincent! I hope you would do next for the iconic Smokinʼ Joe Frazier. I think that would be awesome! God bless you, man!
Shouldn't be considered one the greatest heavyweights all time as he had a 26-10-2 record as a heavyweight only 11 KOs which isn't anything special. Really only thing Holyfield was great at was headbutting guys when wrapping up smh just look at Hasim Rahman fight! If I was Tyson I wouldve uppercut the mofo in the nuts instead of biting his ear smh wanna fight dirty dudes gonna lose that shit lmfao
@@kimobush2287 in his prime, before going to prison he got beat by buster Douglas(lost his mother 23 days before the fight), now pls don't find excuse that Mike didn't train and was partying
Was waiting for this, definitely the most underrated heavyweight. Fought everyone, 4x champion undisputed in both cruiserweight and heavyweight and a very good all around boxer
Holyfield is one of the toughest men I’ve ever seen. His fights with Riddick Bowe were brutal!! Fighters today go down after one shot. Evander ate at least ten of a Riddick Bowe power shot and kept coming. RESPECT ✊
@etgohm8127All of these thanks to his technique. He literally had no flaw and even outjabbed opponents 15cms taller than him. 1) Tyson 2) Usyk 3) Louis 4) Holifield 5) Holmes/Ali 6) Wallcott 7) Lewis 8) Norton
Just finished a 10 hour shift. Coming home at 7 so i can eat and go back to bed because i have to get up again at 5. Just seeing you upload a 50 min boxing documentary excites me so i at least have something to look forward to in the little time i have Thnx!
Legitimately the most underrated fighter of all time. On any given night Evander Holyfield could beat you I don't care who you are or what weight class. You can never underestimate the REAL DEAL!
Prime Holyfield was close to perfect in my opinion. He was never quite the same after the first Bowe fight. He very slowly faded after that but was still the best or one of the best heavyweights for almost a decade after that. If it was somehow possible, prime Ali vs. prime Holyfield would be the greatest fight. They were even both same height/ weight as well. Both had great hand speed foot work and combination punching skills. Both were relentless and would not back down.
Just watched the 30 for 30 they did for Evander. And now this popped up, can't get any better on my day off. KEEP them coming bro! Always going a good job.
Holyfield, was Incredible, look at the accuracy, technicality, precision, power, insane combinations. This dude was born to fight. It was sad to see him fight recently.
That fight should have never happened. He had confirmed brain damage. That doctor who signed off on that fight should have their licenses removed. There's no excuse why that fight happened.
That celebration of the young boxer who knocked him out as well made me very upset. Like how can you celebrate knocking out a grandfather? Hope he got paid very well for that, I figured it was a financial thing.
@@Andre-cl2qt why do you think that? They are legends in many peoples books, they did shit most people could or will never achieve. Yes they had some down hill battles but the fact that they came back and beat most off there opponents and are now humble guys makes them pretty close to being legends.
@@biglongun Never. 20 year old Mike with sharp bobbing, weaving and combinations mops both him and Lennox Not to mention Holyfield is a glorified PED cheat
I met Evander in a body shop where he was rebuilding a late 60's Corvette. The body shop was on Peachtree Road inside the beltway. What an every-day kind of guy. Bless him.
Joe does it again. Another winner. 50 freaking minutes gone in what seems like a few moments. The story telling is engaging. The edits are on point. The sound effects add that certain something. Well done.
It was because of his fight with Dawi that I never believed for a second that he might not have been serious about or was egging on Tyson. That man’s fight history is irrefutable truth that his hands were rated E for everybody that wanted to hop in the ring with him. He wanted Tyson in his prime. No doubt about it. Boy I wish that was the fight we got.
His Fight against Bert Cooper was the same. Just are you kidding how are you standing (shades of Gatti/Ward or even later that fight with Bowe). To this day, I have never seen a HW fight that had that much action. Bowe was 6'4-5ish and Evander was 6'2 maybe 210. And they stood there and beat the ever loving shit out of each other. Say what you want about the man, but he had the heart of an absolute lion. Prime Evander was almost too much for anyone that fought (Tyson and Lewis included). The Holyfield from a few years before Tyson lost to Douglas, and to right after the first Bowe fight was almost unstoppable. Only guy that could have beat him was Bowe at that time. They were almost bred for each other style wise.
Yeah, but Douglas was a good guy who did a lot for his local community after he retired. Douglas is the sort of guy who could maybe find a future champion. Even if he doesn't, he did the impossible on that one night.
@@Ozvideo1959 Not only does Douglas' story have absolutely nothing to do with my memories formed as a child in context to my comment you're just making it worse he came in untrained and out of shape for his first defense. So the fat bum got dropped, "and the new". He was an underachiever who got motivated exactly once against a shell of a man who had no business in a boxing ring and none of his corner had any business in the sport. He's a lucky one hit wonder with a one off sob story. Save your bleeding heart trash for someone without perspective, you ridiculous clown.
@@1Xzss Another clown who acts like I haven't learned anything more about the story since I was a child. My god you people are tedious.

The fact that a 42 year old George Foreman could cause that much trouble for Evander Holyfield in his prime, just makes Ali's rumble in the jungle victory even more amazing. How did he take all that punishment from a real life terminator? I know this video is about Evander, and he is an absolute legend also... it just makes me wonder, how would he have gotten on against a 25 year old George?
The Era with Liston Ali Foreman Frazier was the best Those men were the real deal After that only a handful came close to them but I still believe these men were still the best And just how style oriented they were It's like a anime George - Big Bad Puncher was weak to Ali's fast hitting Footwork beast
Evander probably would have done better. Young George was athletic but not smart. Old Foreman was smart and not athletic. I also don't think either Foreman could keep up with Evander's pace while I don't think Evander could knock out either Foreman.
That 24 for 24 with 23 kos from big George on his comeback after 10 years retired is surely one of the best stats in the business! Regardless of his opponents stature.
It's not like he fought bums only. It's just that he and guys like Tyson in his prime were just that much better than their contemporaries A la Gretzky, Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan, ect. In each of their respective sports
Finally someone called it correctly no bums dominance comes from hardwork mixed with skills adjustment yes their are different levels of fighters they was not ducking no one back unless especially Mike sadly to me he is so disrespected as a skilled boxer he got reckless cause it outside of the ring behavior no accountability with his handlers plus the Drugs that part
His fight with Dwight was fucking epic ....holyfield couldn't have had an harder path to a belt ...cos Dwight was a fucking machine. This was the fight that shaped holyfield ...you don't know what your capable of untill you have to do it .holyfield had to go to the well and he did it with heart, grit and stamina
He’s one of my favourite heavyweights, he could take big punches and he would just roll with them. Something we don’t see any more in today’s heavyweight division.
Joe Vincent is the GOAT of boxing documentaries! He really bring us to the ringside and his sound effects are wicked! My favorite one is the thunder during heavy punches, followed by the EPIC "Boom! Perfect timing..." never gets old...
I belive that Holyfield was a very smart boxer, from training routine, how to use his weapons and avoid the oponents on a fight, his technique, strategy, foot work etc. Before his speed, skills, explosion, there was his brain and determination, a true legend. To this day i remember his fights against George, Tyson, Moorer.
I have always been a Holyfoeld fan. This man is the definition of what a boxer is. He had everything speed, strength, stamina, good defense and a cast iron chin, and alot of heart. Possibly the pound for pound best of all time in my opinion or at least in the top 5. That's saying something, only two men beat him and they was alot bigger than him.
This one brought back lots of memories Joe V. Unfortunately, the end of Holyfield's era was more or less the end of me watching boxing much for a lot of years. It seemed like Holyfield was a perpetual underdog, no matter how many giants he chopped down. I was always pleased to see him win 'against the odds'. Thanks for doing your thing, once again!
one of the boxing's greatest warrior ever. man just put on a show everytime he fights win or lose, and absolutely fantastic fighter and you won't see him in a boring fight. man always come to either beat someone up or get beat up but either way, you won't ask for your money back. love me some Holyfield!
Met him at an IHOP in Houston TX and he was very nice to me. I was surprised how wide his chest and back was lol I'm 6'2 and 225 but he made me feel like 5 feet tall lol
You make the most engaging/ no fluff/ informative sports documentaries!! If you ever make a Sweet Pea Pernell Whitaker doc I will burst into tiny particles of glee!
The Holyfield-Quawi fight ( The first) changed me from a casual fan to an avid fan. I fell in love with the sport. Evander Holyfield is my favorite fighter of all time!!
Evander Holyfield is my favorite fighter of all time. he made me want to become a fighter salute to Evander Holyfield. p4p one of the greatest heavyweights of all-time respect the legend Real Deal Evander Holyfield.🥊👑🥊✊🏽😔

Kids will be watching these long after we are gone. You're doing a great service. Thanks for your effort and time
Holyfield imo is the most underrated champion of all time. He was a fucking specimen too. Guy was a brick house. Glad you made this. Evander deserves way more recognition and credit. The ear thing overshadowed alot of his career, but don't forget, Tyson did that because he was getting his ass kicked. Again.

This was the fight that shaped holyfield ...you don't know what your capable of untill you have to do it .holyfield had to go to the well and he did it with heart, grit and stamina
I have never seen in my life a man land so many clean power punches...this man rocking these folks. Combination power punches at that
I guess you’ve never seen prime bowe, Tyson, hearns, hagler, etc.
He’s one of my favourite heavyweights, he could take big punches and he would just roll with them. Something we don’t see any more in today’s heavyweight division.
Oh You Know It Team Banchamek
Joe Vincent is the GOAT of boxing documentaries! He really bring us to the ringside and his sound effects are wicked! My favorite one is the thunder during heavy punches, followed by the EPIC "Boom! Perfect timing..." never gets old...
I belive that Holyfield was a very smart boxer, from training routine, how to use his weapons and avoid the oponents on a fight, his technique, strategy, foot work etc. Before his speed, skills, explosion, there was his brain and determination, a true legend. To this day i remember his fights against George, Tyson, Moorer.
His wars against Cooper and Bowe are seriously some of the best HW fights I have ever seen.
That “Get over here” before evander landed that last punch 🥊 edit was amazing yet funny @ the same time!
Love these documentaries from Joe Vincent. Unparalleled
He’s better then HBO, Showtime, ESPN, etc…Joe Vincent is the G.O,A.T.
this is reallly the shiit
I have always been a Holyfoeld fan. This man is the definition of what a boxer is. He had everything speed, strength, stamina, good defense and a cast iron chin, and alot of heart. Possibly the pound for pound best of all time in my opinion or at least in the top 5. That's saying something, only two men beat him and they was alot bigger than him.
💯
"Wrap it up, gentlemen."
Joseph Vincent out here with the real facts!
Evander was an absolute legend in the ring.
I’m glad that Joseph decided to cover him.
This one brought back lots of memories Joe V. Unfortunately, the end of Holyfield's era was more or less the end of me watching boxing much for a lot of years. It seemed like Holyfield was a perpetual underdog, no matter how many giants he chopped down. I was always pleased to see him win 'against the odds'. Thanks for doing your thing, once again!
one of the boxing's greatest warrior ever. man just put on a show everytime he fights win or lose, and absolutely fantastic fighter and you won't see him in a boring fight. man always come to either beat someone up or get beat up but either way, you won't ask for your money back. love me some Holyfield!
Met him at an IHOP in Houston TX and he was very nice to me. I was surprised how wide his chest and back was lol I'm 6'2 and 225 but he made me feel like 5 feet tall lol
He’s a physical specimen for sure

(9:09) "Sidebar: Wrap it up, gentlemen!" --> Priceless and excellent advice, Mr. Vincent!
You make the most engaging/ no fluff/ informative sports documentaries!! If you ever make a Sweet Pea Pernell Whitaker doc I will burst into tiny particles of glee!
Just like Evander this channel is the Real Deal 🥊
Evander Holyfield was one of the most underrated Champions of all time 🐐 I love to study him
You know it's going to be a great day when Joe Vicent drops these gems!!! Keep up the good work!
O.J and Bill in the same place!!! Priceless.

The Holyfield-Quawi fight ( The first) changed me from a casual fan to an avid fan. I fell in love with the sport.
Evander Holyfield is my favorite fighter of all time!!

Much respect to him. Still wish the Tyson fight would have taken place earlier. Guess we will never know for sure.
Holyfield will always be one of my favorites. (inside and outside of ring)
Thanks for making these documentaries man! Better than most of the big budget ones I have seen! 🤙🏽
I was having a rough day. Nothing was going right. Then...perfect timing.
JV comes through in the clutch.
You're one of a few comments saying the same thing, I too have had a bad few days..we were drawn here for some reason
Hands down my favorite Heavyweight of all time! I rewatch the 10th round against Bowe when I ever need motivation.
How long does it take you to create a typical masterpiece like this? The amount of work I can think of is finding all of the video and cutting it. The editing must take weeks? Is there an average for one of your 30/60 minute artworks? Such a thing of beauty. Please continue to bless us and TH-cam. Remember, every video you make will be available forever. Kids will be watching these long after we are gone. You're doing a great service. Thanks for your effort and time
Geeez what a line up!! Love it! This is the best Holyfield documentary ever 🙏🏾
Holyfield imo is the most underrated champion of all time. He was a fucking specimen too. Guy was a brick house. Glad you made this. Evander deserves way more recognition and credit. The ear thing overshadowed alot of his career, but don't forget, Tyson did that because he was getting his ass kicked. Again.
Oh yeah… I live for these. I love these. Keep ‘em coming!
I’d love to see you remastered Muhammad Ali’s like you did Michael Jordan and even make it longer. I don’t care how long it is I’ll watch it.
Gosh damn right
That dude was a monster in the ring. Left left uppercut right. If he found a hole, he would stick it in there and knock them out. Great fight. Great man. Thanks, I enjoyed it.👍
I’ve been waiting this for a month finally he was the best conditioner and his footwork style is beautiful
I do remember real deal boxing games it was a great boxing game that started fight nights .. this game need his flowers
Thank you joe Vincent! Holyfield is one of my favorites, he did amazing things for his size
Damn I’m just now seeing this and I’m On my way to work. Now I gotta wait ten hours to watch this, hyped tho, been waiting for the Holyfield one✊💪💪💪
