Holmes should have retired after the Cooney fight. His last three years as heavyweight champion didn't do much for his legacy. It made him richer...
I'm sure politics played a role in the prevention of some of those fights being made. But I agree that many of those matches against some of the...

I totally forgot about his kick boxing matches. Was he good? I have never seen any of those matches. But in his pro boxing career, he hasn't taken...
I think your analysis is accurate. And you are probably right in terms of who will have the better legacy. But that is only due to the fact that...
