    A tip of the hat to Larry Holmes, one of the greatest heavyweight champions ever. Last month, Holmes attended the Great Sports Legends Dinner that's held annually to raise money for The Buoniconti Fund to Cure Paralysis. Other attendees included John Elway, Magic Johnson, Mark Messier and Gary Player.

    Then there were the second-tier sports celebrities, including New York Knicks guard Nate Robinson. At one point, Holmes and boxing memorabilia expert Craig Hamilton found themselves talking with Robinson.

    "I hope you're not embarrassed," Robinson told Holmes. "But I don't know who you are."

    "I'm not embarrassed," the legendary champion responded. "But you should be."

    Larry's mouth is just as quick as his jab was! That's funny!

    Robinson should have asked Holmes to learn something after Carmelo Anthony pounded his whole team out.
