    lol yes true..I thought he meant the slurring of Holyfield not the stupidity of his speech after Tyson...I would've cut the interview, Holyfield was pathetic !

    You're honestly going to compare Fury to Holmes?

    The subject stated to name a fighter that came back the same after a devastating KD. My example was Holmes. Saying how Holmes not only TKO'd the same man, in the same fight, that he himself was KD'd in but also had a LONG stellar career after that KD (that KD being in 1979, and Holmes fighting until 2002). I'd never compare Fury to Holmes as Holmes is light-years above the boxer, Fury is. What I said at the end of dimming the lights on this Fury post is that - Holmes already accomplished what the subject is about back in 1979.
