I think I see what you're getting at... but Barrack would probably have a hot line to Holmes' dressing instead, with Holmes being black and American, and Wlad not. But Holmes would STILL find something to bitch about, probably about how the press and public not liking him 'cause he's black, that he doesn't get paid enough money, blah, blah, blah.

Then he'd make some crack about not only Marciano, but EVERY white heavyweight in history not being able to carry his jock. Then he'd collect his winnings and drive his fat, blubbery self to the nearest bank... where he'd complain about not getting better service because he's black.

Yep....... I truly dislike the guy.
No I was siding with Holmes. Someone quoted here something he said about Hagler about him being from Philly, being a south paw and being Black. He said "I was Black once, when I was poor", classic line.
