    Is Nate Robinson the short dude who won the dunk contest or is it another Nate Robinson?

          Wow Holmes was right, Nate should be embarrased for not knowing who one of the greatest heavyweights of all time is.

            the entire article was a bit pretentious, but Holmes, well he is good ol' Larry. A very articulate man even though he was punched in the head for a living. Larry was/is underrated and generally avoided due to his somewhat off-standish attitude. Granted I would be the same way if I were him. He was great and not appreciated and he resented that, and he knew he would have to suck up a little bit to be accepted, and that was not in his nature. I completely and utterly respect him for turning down multi-millions to fight Gerrie Coetzee in S. Africa because Holmes was opposed to Apartheid and didn't feel those bastards should benefit because of him. Damn right Larry. He might've insulted everyone with his Marciano comment, but seriously, do you think Rocky could've gotten by that jab. Larry wasn't a little man by any means and was a masterful technician.

              I like the way Larry Merchant explained Homles to the public.

              "Larry was just a prize fighter, who happend to be very very good."

                  Nate should be embarrassed, hell I remember reading that he loves to do boxing training to develop his body, I guess he doesn't watch much boxing.
