    Clearly Larry Holmes was Greater than Muhammad Ali, as he did defeat the
    person that called himself 'The Greatest'.

    Not only was his victory so 'Great' over Muhammad Ali, he actually made
    people feel pity for Mr. Ali.

    Disagree, but Larry is definitely top ten, arguably top five.

    Larry Holmes

    Fun Filled Fact #71

    Larry Holmes had more victories after turning the age of 40, then Muhammad Ali
    did after the age of 30.

    A head to head terror. Sure, he was a great boxer (with a couple costly tendencies), but he was always in shape to go the distance with good output, he was proud, confident and strong... and he was as mean a ******* inside the ring as there ever was.

    I am a big Holmes fan.

    SP, yet again you prove your dislike of Ali by using some stupid trumped up fact. I would imagine that since you were proven as a liar in the tony ayala thread that you would be too embarrassed to continue this ****.


    Evidently not
