![]() Fury is in his prime right now and I think he beats anyone he fights now. That fight would have been beautiful if it could have happened in both their primes. Tyson is a stronger puncher than Larry but Holmes is a better boxer. Tyson Fury might have been a problem for Larry because of his size. Larry is the better boxer but Tyson has improved that much and is such a big hulk of a guy. “Tyson Fury who holds the WBC title against Larry Holmes would be a good fight. The Klitschko brothers (Vitali and Wladimir) would probably cause him some problems and so would Lennox Lewis because Lennox was so powerful and obviously George Foreman would give Larry problems but he was such a good boxer he would box George’s ears off and do the same thing as Muhammad Ali did to him in Zaire and just box him and box him until Big George got exhausted and then he would knock him out.” “I think he would beat any other heavyweight. Larry Holmes rates number one in my rating. When they were not only knocked down but knocked out and came back to win the fight. No other heavyweight has done that in the history of boxing. He got knocked out three times in fights but came back to win those fights against Renaldo Snipes in Pittsburg and then against Ernie Shavers in Las Vegas also Mike Weaver in Madison Square Garden especially against Snipes when he went down and his eyes were rolling back but he got up to beat Snipes and he got up to beat Shavers and he got up to beat Weaver. ![]() That would be a real tough fight for Muhammad because of Larry’s jab. ![]() “Larry Holmes and Muhammad Ali both at their very best. Hall of Fame broadcaster “Colonel” Bob Sheridan talks to ® about former world heavyweight champion Larry Holmes, whom he rates as the best he has seen.
