Larry Holmes vs WBA champs

[JAB5239]

- - Could said, "Yo, Don, give me that new WBA punk on a halfshell right now or else."

But he didn't. It was the WBA boys manning up to each other, so Lar was rightly scared of that unholy scrum of KOs...sorted...0-0, 0 KO forevermore...forevermore...

Lol, whatever you say!!! To bad no one agrees with you and history says different. If I'm wrong, prove it. When should he have fought these guys?

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.

Isn't it a point that Holmes disqualified some qualified opposition due to politics? As I recall it from bitd (I could be wrong), Holmes flat out refused to fight these guys because of apartheid. Whether one finds the excuse valid enough really isn't the point.

Just tell us when he should have fought these 7 men with a total of 3 successful title defenses. Round and round we go with the forum troll who refuses to answer this simple question.

And just remember Holmes beat men who held or would hold that trinket.

Here's something to ponder.......maybe these guys choose to fight for the WBA title instead of going after the lineal title because it was an easier path. I mean, isn't that the problem with having g so many ABC orgs? Guys can stay in their own lane to avoid guys who could trouble them much of the time. Holmes was the recognized champion, not any WBA belt holder.....the onus is on them to go after the champion, not the other way around.

Same as U IQ = 0.00

You must have been drunk at home by yourself again last night and wanted some attention.

I see you're still avoiding the question. Keep trolling you old drunk, no takes you seriously around here. Everyone know you're a troll with very little boxing knowledge.

- - What part of Lar never beat a WBA champ holding the title, nor a IBF do U not understand. Even his WBC title was an administrative upgrade that would be an email belt today.

Marvis in da house!!!

There you go, avoiding the question again. And who said anything about Ali. Ali was one of two men Holmes defeated who held the WBA title. The next one never successfully defended that title, the next Holmes had already beaten, the one after that had one successful defense but use to be Larry's sparring partner. After that, no more successful defenses during Holmes reign.

Don't you ever get tired of embarrassing yourself?
