    Did Larry Holmes Beat.. Mcall Spinks And Nielson

    I Heard A Few Opinions That Holmes Was Robbed In These Fights ...
    I Also Read He Fought A Prime Holyfield With A deacthed retina.. That Fight Was Close Also..

    he didnt beat mccall, mccall won a fair decision although mccall was acting a bit odd during the fight, holmes did much better against holyfield than foreman did and he was wearing contact lenses from what i know. i thought spinks won the first fight but holmes should have been given the second fight.

      I had both Spinks-Holmes fights 9-6.

      The first for Michael and the rematch for Larry.

      Yes, Holmes got robbed in the rematch.

        naa,,,,mcall definitely won that fight although holmes was competitive. I thought holmes should have got the win over spinks in the second fight. I didnt think his fight with holy was close although he was competitive

          From What I Undersand Holmes Was Dominating Mcall Early But Ran Out Of Gas..... Holmes Was Almost Always The Smaller Fighter..he Was Tall But Didnt Fight All That Tall... And If He Was Ever In Great Shape He Would Of Weighed About 200 Pounds...

            i think his prime weight was around the 205lb, the holyfield fight wasn't that close but holmes did much better imo than foreman did.
