    No he did not drop kick Cooney.
    Holmes was angry & unkind sometimes, yet overall & especially over the years (mellowing) was good. Also with his finances & business.

    While it seems cool, attacking someone from drop kicking them from a car is not right, not legal, nor fair fighting.

    Wasn’t Berbick calling Holmes’ wife a h*oar? Berbick was a despicable human being so chances are he deserved it.

    Thanks I forgot about Crolla.

    He’s always seemed a good guy. Good model pro as well, got everything out of his career that he could have.

    Little Red was the first I could think of. Solid guy.

    Tony Lopez as well. He does some good work here in Sacramento.

    Roberto Duran for all his exploits. Pretty solid.

    I did not know that. Berbick was more mentally ill than bad. But while I do not feel much sympathy for him if he said this, it is still bad to assault someone like that. I would have respected it more if say Larry confronted him at close quarters, & if Berbick made a move/attacked, handled him.
