    No. Just way too old. The one that fought Tyson would have schooled him. But I'm sure you know that already.

    Larry Holmes is in decent shape. he should make a return. he could fight Foreman, whup him, then take another tune up against peter, then he'll be ready for Arreola.

    You mean "Could the last version of Holmes we saw in the ring beat Chris Arreola now?" or do you mean "Could Holmes now beat Chris Arreola now?" ?? :blood

    In a parking lot with the element of surprise, he'd have a decent shot.

    hmmm, this seems like a thinly disguised attempt to downgrade Vitali's victory.

    Arreola would need a few Coronas in him first.

    If you give him 6 weeks to train yes. Without training now he would run out of steam, the man likes his ring dings and chocolate milk.
