  1. Up to that point Holmes had only lost twice in a row to Spinks. I remember watching both of those fights live and in reality Larry was robbed both times by the judges. And everyone knew it. So really Holmes was truly undefeated and he had never been down before either. And still Prime Mike DESTROYED him! And then he DESTROYED Spinks! And then Don King Weasel his way into his camp, and ruined him as he had so many other fighters. If it wasn’t for Don King Tyson may have never been beat?

  2. En France lors de cette diffusion sur canal+ Jean-Claude Boutier qui le commentaire du combat tout en haut dans les tribunes pour les télévisions à dit"d'où l'on est, j'ai entendu le choc de cette terrible droite à la face de Holmes, comment est t'il encore debout !?"

  3. ALI'S RECORD WAS GREATER AND TOUGHER FIGHTER THAN LARRY. HOMES WASNT A GREAT BOXER- JUST BIG AND POWERFUL WITH NO IN THEIR PRIME OPPOSITION- ALI FOUGHT MOST PRIME PEOPLE. HUGE DIFFERENCE.!!!! STILL- ROCKY WAS THE ULTIMATE CHAMP– PERIOD.

  4. Round 1 Tyson
    Round 2 tyson but homles with his clinching and being able to keep tyson a bit back has had effect as holmes as he lands a bit but looks in danger of possibld pressure if holmes doesn't clinch.
    Round 3 tyson landing a bit more after holmes is starting to stop clinching halfway thru the round it feels.
    Round 4
    Holmes comes out confident but Tyson changes all that with his power. Holmes down once, Holmes everywhere..TKO
