        the sad thing is larry is still bitter with a chip on his shoulder to this day. you would think hed have grown up and shown some humility by now with the credit he now gets. he was a great boxer but an insecure ahole as a person. it was a great fight tho

              I got to interview Holmes once, and I wouldn't say he was an a-hole. He was actually very gracious and a pretty cool guy. He is a little insecure, perhaps; but he was dissed for quite some time and is proud of all his achievements both in and outside the ring.

                you must have lucked out and caught him on a very good day. every interview I ever see of him he seems bitter and always talk negatively about other fighters. in fact,, I don't ever once recall him saying anything good about any other fighter besides himself. I could understand him being bitter back in the day but he gets plenty of praise now

                    Holmes/Norton is one the greatest fights ever. It is amazing that heavyweights back then could battle hard for 15 rounds.

                      I wouldn't say it was the LAST great heavyweight fight but there certainly is a nostalgic feel to it in retrospect....
