    The Bigger name? George Foreman or Evander Holyfield?

    Foreman has been around for much longer than Holy, a lot of people remember him as "The monster that lost to Ali", but I hope for him that most people remember him for the oldest man to ever win a title. He's also got his grill, so the whole world might recognize his name.

    Holyfield is probably best known for beating Mike Tyson, and being the guy that got his ear bitten. But he has some huge fights against Bowe, he's been on other shows like Dancing with the Stars. And even today, he still is a bigger attraction than any other Heavyweight when he's fighting.

    I think Ali and Tyson are the most known for sure, though. So I wonder who's more known between these 2 legends.

        Foreman by far, his grills kick the **** out of everything.

            Foreman. He was already a big name from the 70s and his comeback in the 80s and 90s garnered a LOT of attention.

                They both were the 3rd man of their times. Foreman to Ali and Frazier (and yes I know about him dominating Frazier, but Smokin' Joe is still a bigger name of THAT ERA) and Holyfield was behind Tyson and Lewis, though he is pretty close in name recognition as Lewis is. Both of their careers have spanned 3 decades and both have been in legendary fights against legendary fighters. Foreman takes it without the grills based on the lore of his comeback in a deeper time of the heavyweights and they way he laid Moorer out cold, Holyfield is fighting in a time of unknowns and has lost against inferior opposition. Plus an old Foreman gave a prime Holyfield a hell of a scrap. You include the grills and TV show, and Foreman obliterates Holyfield in this contest.

                    Definatly Foreman. Most of that is because of the grills though. I know guys who know George as the grill guy but a few of them never knew he was champ! Ignorant *******!
