That line about "Why you beat me like that, if you respect & love me?" Ali said that to Holmes at the press conference of their fight.

Larry dismissing the interviewer and Tyson's reaction was PRICELESS. Holmes is a gem!

The great champion of champions George foreman said he was more scared of don king and the dotted line than he was of Mike Tyson.

Funny how Larry made The Penguin noises when describing Don King. Totally 100% spot on characterization. Nailed it!

I distinctly remember Foreman saying he was coming back to win the Title again. Tyson was champ .George was 37. he also said Tyson would end up in jail. 'I'm not just a former Champ, I'm a prospect, and that's the way I see myself." smart strategy.

Holmes got fed up with everyone. He should have taken the road passed to him from Ali. If everyone said he was Ali's puppet or clone he should have wore it well. After all he learned alot from Ali. It's not everyday folks take you under their tutelage and ameliorate your empty skill set. Rock On Larry Holmes Wish you the Best

Holmes when younger would’ve been a great Epic power versus Jab an LH fought hard hitters thru career not Tyson other than Shavers but I would love to have seen , LH could take a punch an finesse

BULLSHIT. A Tyson-Holmes bout was in the works way back in '86 before Tyson joined the HBO Unification Tournament. Holmes was put on the shelf but promised first crack at Tyson's belts after the tourney. He stayed in shape, fought a couple exhibitions, was groomed for a comeback and wanted to make history by beating Mike Tyson.

He was far heavier when he came back and was heavier than his prime when he fought Spinks in `85, he looked like an old man even then.
