    Enjoy mate. :thumbsup

    Yeah Lewis-Holy II was quite good, but i just wish Old Evander had more energy to press the action more with longer spurts. I hated the Toney fight, Holyfield was clearly shot-to-****, & it was sad seeing him exhausted & getting dominated after round 3, desperately charging in head-first to no avail. :verysad

    Off topic but if I was dating/marrying a woman I couldn't accept a blowjob from her. I would kiss her and I wouldn't want to kiss her after she sucked my ... :yikes. If she previously gave blowjobs I would wait until a few months to kiss her hoping she's not cheating. If it was a **** buddy I wouldn't care because I wouldn't kiss her.

    Holyfield could only fight in spurts against Lewis(rematch) but that was a very gallant effort from him. Toney-Holyfield was still a very good fight mostly on Toney's part. Holyfield did good with some leaping left hooks but Toney toke them pretty well. Holyfield was gassed but Toney was countering him and making him miss most of the night. Holyfield gave a good effort but the last few rounds were painful at times.

    Indeed the Lewis rematch was a very gallant effort from The Warrior, i gave him 5 of 12 rounds, & that's an impressive achievement considering he was 37 years old & against a Peak Superheavy H2H monster. :good

    Exciting...that's been his stock in trade throughout his career..whatever his plus and minuses are, he's always fought with his heart.

    :rofl

    That's for germs, not sperm!


    Indeed. His fight with Valuev had me snooxing at times but no doubt he got robbed, and was like 46 at the time! Valuev is the worst hvy champion of recent times but Holyfield still gave an effort that should've won him that belt.

    I may sound crazy but I don't think Holmes gets enough credit for fighting at a very high level way past his prime. He had a moment against a prime Tyson in the 2nd I believe, gave prime Holyfield all he could handle, beat a younger Mercer, and might have beaten Mccall.

    It was sheer excitement plus when Evander tried with his heart and fists to corral that zephyr of brilliance, the great SNV...to try to catch lightning in a bottle and end the glory reign of that towering tower of pugilistic pulchritudiness...that will-o-the wisp of the East...the great Sugar Nicolai Valuev!!!!!!!

    Erm...no comment.

    Well i think is performance against Tyson is often overrated, afterall he was obliterated early, & Tyson-Haters are desperate to say a "shot" Holmes gave Mike "trouble". He may have had a brief moment, but Tyson was taking his time & knew he just had to land a nuclear righthand & Larry's remaining minutes conscious would be numbered (due to his supremely destructive finishing-ability). However, Old Holmes did give Holyfield a tricky & quite competitive fight, when Holy probably thought he was in for a very easy night. His underdog win against young hot prospect Mercer was valuable & i truly believe that he out-boxed McCall, earned the decision & the WBC title at age 45, stunning considering Oliver was coming off a spectacular upset against the devastating young Lewis!

    What you don't want to talk about girls having sperm in their mouths? You're in luck because I don't want to either:barf. Whether sperm is a germ or not lets just....not talk about that.

    He had a "moment" when he was bouncing around but Tyson still whipped him. Holmes did not win that round. Larry definitely won a few rounds against a young Evander. I didn't see the Mccall fight so I don't kno
