    Don't forget to vote in this multiple choice poll.

    I tried to pick Larry's best victories. Left off ghost Ali for obvious reasons, and narrowly chose Renaldo Snipes over Leon Spinks, because Snipes made it real hot for Larry, whereas Spinks was already in collecting a paycheck mode.

    Ken Norton
    Tim Witherspoon
    Ernie Shavers
    Ray Mercer
    Gerry Cooney
    Bonecrusher Smith
    Trevor Berbick
    Mike Weaver
    Renaldo Snipes

    Thanks!

    This is actually quite difficult as it's easy to make a case for him losing to a lot of those guys as it is to see him scoring a come from behind KO.

    Post Fury beatdown makes him look a lot less formidable as he can't fight for **** on the backfoot.
