    I must admit though, that Larry really got screwed in the rematch, there's no fucking way that Spinks won that fight.
    As for Holmes' fight with Tyson, oddly enough I thought Larry might win, I should have known better because this was back when Mikey had seriously bad intentions, and was like a juggernaut. I can't say I minded seeing 'ole Peanuthead (what Ali used to call him) finally get his ass kicked.
    Ali was right, he did have a peanut head...

    Ali was quite the entertainer, in some of his later fights, the pre-fight hype was better then what took place in the ring.
    BTW, Holmes did some funny shit, I recall when Holmes got in a scuffle with some 'can he was going to face for the Championship a few days later. Anyway the scuffle broke out while "Humble Howie" Cossell was doing an interview with Holmes and the 'can and Cossell gets in the middle of it, and ends up getting a fat, bloody lip. I always thought Holmes staged this just so he could bust Cossell a good one in the mouth. I nearly fell out of my recliner I was laughing so fucking hard.
