    Larry seemed to bring out the best in his oppenents, wouldn't you say? Of course not all of them, but a lot. Like Weaver, Witherspoon, Norton, Cooney. They all had some of their best performances against Larry. If you saw them you would never think all of their stats were what they were.

    A critic would simply say they showed Larry's vulnerabilities and overratedness more so than their own surprising abilities Bill. That's a lot of guys suddenly rising out of the blue.

    As to my views i'd hardly say Cooney fought anything above expected.
