Holmes-Cooney was actually a good fight. I knew Holmes would win, but Cooney was destroying people, and gave Holmes a run. Holmes is just one of the best Heavies ever. It was the highest grossing fight at that time, but I don't think it was overhyped.Quote:

Tyson-Holyfield I and II ....Tyson was OWNED!
Winky-Trinidad
Tyson-McNeely
Lewis-Tyson...once again OWNED!
Rahman-Toney...not only was it boring, it had James Toney in it
I agree, although Tyson- Spinks turned out the way that I thought it would....91 seconds.....But Holmes-Cooney was HUGELY HYPED!!!! everybody was talking about it, even non-boxing fansQuote:

Your right, Holmes-Cooneywas a great fight, but I was thinking in terms of super hyped fights, not fights that were hyped but then were busts.Quote:
