    easy for holmes to say when he is not the one fighting a beast like pacquiao. for floyd it's not just money, it's about his health and being able to keep his "0".

    he's not the only one who thinks that way... many great fighters from the past said it also.

    Accurate.

    In fact Marvin Hagler and George Foreman both expressed similar statements while being interviewed with "On the Ropes Boxing Radio" 1 week apart last August.

    It's not that simple Larry. For one, you're two different fighters in different circumstances.

    Larry Holmes tried to shake hands with Floyd once, but Floyd just walked by.

    douchebag move by Floyd. Brushing off your fellow prizefighter like that. Larry wasn't even potential competition either.

    This as bad as Sugar Ray Robinson ignoring Carmen Basilio when he went over to introduce himself to Sugar RObinson.

    What are you talking about an old Larry Holmes came out of retirement to face a young beast in his prime name Mike Tyson the last HW to be considered the number 1 pfp... At the time Tyson was more feared even PFP than Manny.

    Its even worse, because at the time Basillio was just an up and comer and not considered an atg at the time..... Holmes was putting a beatdown and climbing up the HW ranks when Floyd was just a fishy in his daddys nutscack. Holmes was already considered an atg when Floyd was fighting in kiddy competitions at 60lbs.:yep
