Larry Holmes vs Usyk

Given that he missed out on or was beaten by the best fighters of the 80s excepting Witherspoon, %5 is ridiculous. Utterly so. I give him some credit for longevity, but modified by the fact that he ducked or was beaten by the best.

And yeah, he OPENLY ducked Page and Thomas.

 

He sparred Wlad?

Wow!

Well that’s crystal clear evidence that he’d easily have beaten Larry.

I never mentioned the Chisora fight.

 

Oh the irony.

I’ve watched all 3 fights, thanks.

I think you need to go and read the definition of: Handily.

Go and Google it.

Good luck with that too.

 

How long have you been posting this now?

It’s so predictable.

Everybody knows you’re going to type this before you’ve even touched the keys.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Usyk didn’t win the fight handily.

So you either didn’t watch the fight yourself, or you’re another one who has no idea what the definition of the word is.

 

Larry

 

When people have to consistently go to the amateurs, the locations where their favorite Fighters travel to, sparring stories, assumptions that a great boxer is going to have immense trouble adapting to something like a southpaw stance it just looks desperate as all get out LOL

 

Surely Usyk can easily make it to 48-0 using his vaunted skill set, no?

 

24 votes for Usyk is absurd. A much better hypothetical would be Spinks vs. Usyk, but Spinks is rated as a pushover because of what Mike did to him.

 

After Fury shows how a titan deals with a soft bellied sausage then people will change their vote

 

I would need to see Usyk against a couple or three more top contenders to make the call.

 

Holmes jab alone is giving Usyk fits

No bodybuilding static bum like AJ or 3 round gas tank Chisora. Christ almighty. Holmes chins all of Usyks resume.

Does Holmes have quicker feet no but he's got smart feet is longer sexier every other advantage. AJ is basically a heavybag with legs and Usyk got past his jab out of the gate. Holmes is a different animal.

 

100%
Prime Holmes was the best HW I ever saw in my lifetime. I don't give Usyk a snowballs chance in hell

 

You wouldnt.

 

Yea that's exactly what I said. Your point?

 

Holmes.
