Yup, he's one of my main inspirations (I'm ambidextrous but a dominant righty, so in southpaw I do similar types of stuff).
Hagler used his jab like a force of nature, he'd double or triple it up and basically drive his whole body towards you while doing it, usually...
Holmes could be hit by big men with long arms and large slamming shots while caught off guard, and even then, if he was hurt, he recovered, if he...

First off, Holmes was 35 and had been on a drop since the Witherspoon fight, even if he was still winning, he was aging. You can make this same...
I think us on Classic would do a lot better by not mentioning the names Mike Weaver or Tony Tucker in the same paragraph anytime soon. It's weird...
Surely McCallum - Toney should be up there, too.

I want to give this to Tyson, but I believe that if Foreman plays the cards right, he could likely knock Tyson out in the later rounds. But then...
I rate Holmes over because I think that his style was all wrong for Tyson. In their 88 fight he was able to suffocate Tyson's offense and live for...
