Man, Holmes was as old as most people's grandpa when he fought Tyson and still went what? 11 or was it 10? Holmes was the blueprint for Buster Douglas' systematic destruction of Mike. Holmes would have done that if that fight were 10 yrs earlier.
just honorable mention: I would say that Holmes is the most under-rated heavyweight champ of all time. Holmes would have beaten Marciano, Louis, Johnson in 1 day like Dempsey's fair ****.
Dude, Holmes lasted only 4 rds with Tyson. He had been retired and hastily prepared for the fight and got his bells rung. Prime Holmes wins that fight or at least acquits himself respectably.
