    15 rounds who you got at this point in their careers? 80s version of two great fighters.

    Just a brutal concept, like pulling wings off of flies ... no winners here, and no point. They gave their best in '75; nothing else could have happened.

    This would be like Rocky Marciano vs Muhammad Ali in 1964, the Rock was way past it by then, he retired in 1956.

    No. Some of us didnt watch Holmes-Ali or Berbick or Frazier-Jumbo. Ever. Some people dont watch carwrecks.

    That was soulful, deep, full of substance. I better take a good hard look in the mirror.
