Roberto Duran i understand Holmes not so much fantastic jab maybe the best but otherwise forgettable given the two eras he was crammed between.

Dude, watch Holmes fights with Shavers & Norton.

Dude got hit with maybe the hardest punch ever thrown & got back up.

Larry Holmes was a BOSS, G.

I consider Larry Holmes to be possibly the most under-rated HW ever.
