I know I'm missing something here. The only thing I can see is Holyfield had more losses than Lewis and Johansson. It says the heavyweight that had more losses as an amateur than a pro. Could there be more than one answer? Its driving me nuts Joe, Help a brother figure it out here.....

There is no trick question. It says, What Heavyweight boxer had more losses as an amateur than as a pro?

Holyfield has the highest number of losses in his amatuer career than he does his pro career.

Johansson was close but Holyfield had more losses as an amateur.

I correct myself Johansson:
He finished his career with a 26-2 record, including 17 knockouts.
Johansson went 61-10 with 31 KOs as a decorated amateur.

What about Rocky Marciano? He had 4 amateur losses but no pro losses. Doesn't that count?
