I ask myself the same when I watch Holmes getting lifted from the floor by Tyson's right hand, first knockdown. The explosive sound of that punch still lingers on in my ears after 35 years.

Yeah that was another one. Holmes ability to recover was otherworldly.
I actually got to speak to Shavers quite a bit as he settled in Liverpool and used to work the doors on the several bars in the city. I’ve actually spoke to him about that shot and he said he caught him perfectly, he thought Larry was out.
I think Holmes has said hitting his head on the canvas was what woke him back up as well or something crazy like that.
