Can John Tate really gave Holmes a tough fight and possibly a loss

I'm here to talk about boxing for the record.

A lot of your opinions I certainly disagree with. But it wouldn’t be much of a forum if we all agreed.

Despite stopping Weaver, Holmes was breathing heavily in between the 11th and 12th round. I've read before that Larry was so worried upon watching Tate outboxed Weaver (until he got knockout in the 15th).

If Tate had won, can he really beat Holmes and put a loss in his record and Larry won't go up to 48-0. It can also be argued that Holmes soften up Weaver for Tate.

Tate was a bum.

QueensburyRules won't give up until he has had the final word.
In a sense, he's a fighter.

Yes, but one who is losing and it's only a matter of time before the ref waves it off.

It's over, he can have the last word. He was ko'd as soon as I posted the NY times article concerning Holmes-Coetzee.

--- Nice little glee club of bowling pins perfectly lined up you got going.

Luv me my strikes...

Resorting to name calling without making any points. Alright, ref waves it off, TKO.

Tate could not take it and was a low skill unimaginative hwt contender. First solid right hand by Holmes ends the fight. Could be round one, could be round ten. No contest fight.

--- Big John did something tubby Lar shoulda, coulda, woulda, but didn't because he didn't have the grit of selfconfidence, and that was to fly down under to SAfrica and take on their great champ.

Let's not forget Dwayne Bobick KTFO out of him in the Olympic trials!

Queen is certainly not making a lot of friends.
