    Does anyone know how much Larry Holmes weighed for his 72 amatuer fight with Duane Bobick? He looks like a lightheavyweight in that fight, his legs look like broomsticks.
    Also, i don't care what Larry Holmes says, Bobick beat him fair and square. Bobick's knockdown of Larry was legit and not a slip, and Duane controlled the action throughout til Holmes was disqualified.

    About 185 pounds I think.

    Brief time Bobick was on top of the amateur world. ABC-TV had a bunch of those matchups on home TV....and not just the Olympic fights.
