Jim Jeffries vs Evander Holyfield

[boxing boy]

Jim Jeffries vs Evander Holyfield in a 20 round fight.

Jeffries was 6'2 1/2'',220lbs in his prime.

He had enormous strength,power,stamina,determination,and a good chin.

He won the title in only his 13th fight,and defended it 7 times.

He was never knocked down in his prime.

During training he would run 14 miles,skip rope 2 hours,20 minutes on the heavy bag,and spar 12 rounds!!!

Who do you think would win in a 20 round fight?

He was fighting "out of shape" white guys?

Could you please name these "out of shape" white guys?

Evander would get him out of there, too fast, accurate and refined for a guy like Jeffries.

That said though, if Jeffries made it through the early rounds evander could have trouble with the distance.

I'd favor Jeffries in a 20 rounder, Evander in a 12 rounder and possibly a 15 rounders as well.

JJ would be better known had he stayed retired undefeated instead of taking that ill fated fight with a prime Johnson after 6 years without a fight. 7-1-1 vs HOFers, he just doesn't have a resume padded with a bunch of nobodies like a lot of other fighters.

Not enough power to bother Evander, but he had phenomenal endurance and a solid chin.
