    Holmes had said that he was fighting for history and was only gonna fight to 50-0, Spinks and one more. He only returned to fight Tyson to become the third two time HW champ, his first shot at history had been ruined by Spinks

    Old Homer did not give a **** in 1988, And he did not challenge Tyson - it was Donny King who knocked on his door And offered him 3mill Dollars. :thumbsup

    One of the TNT's would have gotten to him, especially Tubbs, but after working out with Tony, Larry knew the deal.
