In all fairness to Holmes, I thought he beat Norton by more than just a point or two. It was a close fight, but I think Holmes did more than...
Exactly! The main point is that Holmes didn't fight Norton again period! Holmes never rematched fighters that gave him close, tough fights. He...
Very well put! I agree with you totally! Holmes definitely has his share of faults. He was a great fighter, but he wasn't a perfect champion.
Holmes is still a bitter jerk after all these years! haha.......I'm sure he's a cool guy for the most part, but he still has that problem...

Tito seems like such a cocky guy, the exact kind of guy that I love to see beat.....But I'd love to see Kimbo laid out too.

I think Larry Holmes is probably around 270 pounds now. Maybe he can make a comeback fight and show us all how effective he can be at that weight.
Yeah, Cooper was definitely in some exciting fights. Too bad the Cooper that showed up to fight Holyfield and Moorer was not the same Cooper that...
I should have said with all the punches he landed to the head. Sorry, my mistake! That single bodyshot was a good one.....But I was focusing on...
