    I had to mute that music but the footage was great. Obviously Valuev steamrolls him h2h but...you know.

    Not to harp on it but as great as Marciano was, he couldn't even shave with an axe...

    I thought the music was fine, definitely better than rap.

    Bill,

    I think you will be happy to hear Larry Holmes has moved up signifigantly on my all time heavyweight list. he now sits in my top 5. I have grown more appreciation for him lately from watching him in his prime, and studying his fabulous record, and have slightly forgiven his choice of handpicking from 1983-85. only slightly though :tong

    Marciano and Holmes are both top 5 greats, I know you agree with that. Both sometimes still don't get there due. These are 2 men who refused to accept defeat and beat the best of their era, no excuses.

    Holmes deserves a top 5 rating.
