      I agree, Holmes was a great champion. But I wouldn't call his era weak, just because he kept winning his title fights.
      So did, for example, legendaries such as Louis and Johnson. But Holmes as a champion, fought better challengers than they did.

          I'll take Shavers, Witherspoon, Cooney and Micheal Spinks over anyone Johnson fought as champion.

            Brother, I not saying you're wrong. I've said Johnson made a career of fighting people who were half his size. on the other hand I believe Johnson could have beat anyone Holmes has fought. So could Liston, Ali, Louis, Johnson, and Lewis. I think Tommy Burns could beat Spinks.

                      - - In a general sense, yes, but keeping in mind Lar almost lost if not did lose against em, I'd favor Willard over all including Lar in his scheduled 40 rounder vs JJ.
