Last Hurrahs

Great post and thread as always Marbleheadmaui, Did not realise that was Michael Carbajal’s last fight. Well done on him for quitting whilst ahead. Often fighters will try and fight again if they won. Dempsey’s victory was dirty. Larry Holmes beating Mercer was enjoyable as even Larry was in tears as he got the respect he truly deserved by beating the then undefeated Olympic gold medalist, when Holmes was well passed his best.

Always liked Tony Lopez going into Champions Joey Gamaches hometown and turning back the clock, and cleaning Joeys.

Great call on Larry Holmes. I missed that one!
