    You are opening up a can of worms, my friend.

    @NoNeck is a knowledgeable poster and a good dude, but he doesn't have special love for Holmes lol.

    Btw I agree with you. As much as I admire and am a fan of Iron Mike in the 80s, I don't think he'd make 10 rounds against Prime Larry, despite quite possibly knocking him down before the end.

    It’s ok I think that Douglas for that one night could beat any version of Tyson not just the Tyson that showed up. There for I think a prime Holmes could do it also
