The Tyson Juggernaut Rolls On
"...I think he's run out of opponents. I think he is that good."
"Larry Holmes was a lot better than I figured he was going to be", said Gil Clancy in the aftermath of the Holmes'blowout. " I thought Larry fought a very smart fight for the first three rounds. I don't think Tyson knocked out a completely shot Larry Holmes. He got that tremendous punch and he nailed Holmes. I think he's run out of opponents. I think he's that good. "(1)
-Gil Clancy
"In the end, Larry Holmes went out like a champion...fighting."
"When the curtain finally fell on Holmes' long and successful career, the "Easton Assassin" was flat on his back but still struggling to get up and face Mike Tyson once again. However, Referee Joe Cortez knew better. At 2:55 of Round Four, following the third knockdown in the round, Cortez waved the fight over."(2)
