    The Tex-Cobb fight.

    Larry looked slick in that fight, imo.

    Leon Spinks and Ossie Ocasio. He looks excellent in these bouts. For pure entertainment, watch Shavers II, Weaver, Cooney, and Snipes. Norton too.

    You'll enjoy watching Larry. I like to call him a heavyweight Juan Manuel Marquez. Great technician, who for some reason was easy to hit really clean. Made for entertaining fights. The Weaver and Norton fights are my favourites.

    Good pics... The Mike Weaver fight was competitive at some points as well.. I also appreciated his comeback performance over Ray Mercer.. Not a lot of action from Mercer's end, but a masterful performance for Holmes.
