Larry Holmes vs WBA champs

Absolutely. Unless the comp you fought was equal to or better than the fighters you missed. I think k this is very arguable in many of the cases for Holmes, but certainly not all.

Agreed. We are not comparing Holmes to Roy Jones in this regard.

Some of them is missing on Holmes record though and misses must always factor in when assessing resume.

Holmes wouldn't fight Coetzee in South Africa because of apartheid. He did sign to fight in the US but the fight fell through due to no fault of his own. He also fought more than half these men before or after they held the WBA trinket. Can't blame Holmes they couldn't hold on to their title long enough to ever make a fight with him.

- - 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...

Tell the truth, were you cuckold because of Holmes?

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

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

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."
