And used to think L Holmes was a jerk BEFORE this week

[Master]

I seriously doubt that, Holmes was not even at his peak and Ali put on one of his greatest performance against Foreman.

....being able to take punches while leaning back all the way to India, hold behind the head, and flurrying from time to time doesn't (to me) constitute his best performance. It was a HUGE win but huge performance....no way! The wins over Liston, Williams, and Frazier in the rematch and the 'Thrilla' were better IMO.


Larry Holmes is also a victim of not having any great rivals

It was a huge win and performance, to say otherwise is just strange.
