    Holmes ranks at #4 on my all time list and I'm fine with him staying there.

    he might have beaten them, but they would be tougher than David Bey and guys like Tex Cobb.

    No, Larry shouldn't be given a pass.For Christsakes, the man fought Scott Frank, of all people.That's reasonable murder in some countries.

    Yes because none of these men had a chance in hell of beating Holmes.
