That fight was great,larry holmes got the decision to become heavyweight champion,but in reality I think ken norton won that fight. YOUR THOUGHS:good
Great fight, to bad there was no rematch, **** if Holmes were fighting today he would clean out the whole division:yep
Yep, he would not only beat every last one, but he would destroy them. I give only a prime Vitali a solid chance at beating him, it would be an interesting fight to say the least.
I had Larry by two points, but a great fight and Norton made it ultra-competitive right down the stretch.
Holmes would have beat a prime Vitaly on points or cuts/stoppage by injury especially in a long 15 round fight, Larry was to fast to slick, to much ring generaliship, a prime Vitali was stopped by Lewis, Holmes would outbox him:yep Could you imaging Wlad against Holmes little bro would go into panic attack mode, and hug Larry to death like he did Peter..
So true, I dont know how Wlad would react to a guy who has beater jab than him, probably one of his famous panic attack as you mentioned. I think Vitali would give him a tough fight for the first 6-8 rounds, but after that I see Vitali either suffering a cut or being stopped late in the fight, but for the first 6 rounds Vitali will be very competitive with Holmes IMO.
