Larry Holmes vs WBA champs

[Willow The Wisp]

Not anymore. Most people call him out on his BS, make fun of him or just put him on ignore as I have done a long time ago.

He ropes people in with is trolling skills though, gotta give him some credit for that. Not a whole lot, but a little bit. Poor people want to talk boxing, share a perspective or two, and people like that start fishing for a dance partner, dammed if he doesn't land one. Most troll types are lazy, but not that one. He's dogged. He earns his little rush.

To clear up the subterfuge of his last point, like it was also with Tyson, Lewis and Klitschko later down the road, collecting up THE world title was a multi step process for Larry Holmes as well. Holmes claim came from lifting one of the two (at the time) alphabet belts off of Norton, the top heavyweight at that time, then be beating Ali and Leon Spinks, the last two champions, and finally by amasing title defenses against Weaver, Withersoon, Smith: the best of the counter-champions, in addidion to a long parade if the highest ranking contenders available, as the counter champs kept losing that slippery WBA belt, often to a guy who Homes had already beaten. Between 1978 and 1985, Holmes was one of history's most dominant champions. Try as they might, Los Banditos were never successful in convoluting the lineage of the oldest, richest and most globally acknowledged title in all of sport. Thank goodness. The flagship championship of the only historically significant international pro sport that is neither a stunt or a game. The only one.

Holmes is in the top half of the top half of the heavies. So in the top quarter. You know this because Queensbree says otherwise. Queen is the best litmus test we have, used as a reverse barometer, of course.

Does anyone give any credibility to anything this ignorant mfer posts?

Yes it was. But Holmes did it and continued to dominate. But this hater bag a douche doesn't wanna gives Holmes the credit he deserves either because he's a moron or a troll. Either way he is, what they used to call in my neighborhood a "bag a douche."

The point is you have a choice and don't have to be roped in. It's like the ending to the movie War Games where the computer eventually learns its lesson "The only winning move is not to play."

- - 1-6, 0 KO vs opponents with a title, his sole win being a fractional % less than 1% with no lucrative rematch, ie Norton.

Thanks for the reminder. U monkeys are the gift that keeps on giving.

Holmes fought number 1 ranked contender Norton with a torn left biceps muscle.Holmes fought 22 men who were either top ten ranked or champions.I don't respond to that fool Q B anymore, he just wants attention.

Tell the truth, were you cuckold because of Holmes?

Yep, just like that Sonny guy years ago with Lennox Lewis

- - 1-6, 0 KO vs fighters holding a title, the 1 being generous to Kenny who deserved to hold a title after ALI 3
