I am a little too young to have seen and appreciated Ali and Holmes in their primes, but I'm a YouTube boxing junkie so I agree that these two are fighters that we should all appreciate that we got to see at all. The heavyweight division is very weak right now. Hell, just five or six years ago we had it alot better! And the early to mid 90's was a fuckin' golden age compared to now; Fighters like Holyfield, Tyson, Bowe, Moorer, Mercer, 2nd coming of Foreman, Morrison, Lewis, etc...!

At least this fight last night was on regular cable where I could see it w/o dishing out recession depleted cash. I think if boxing is gonna get popular again in the U.S. this HAS to happen more often.

The car is a '71 Buick Riviera.

The only boxing I really like is the classic and golden age stuff. Anything that's pre-1960s and on back to the days when the first black and white boxing films were produced. Fascinating history. The days when boxers were extremely hard working and tough and knew the boxing game inside out because they had to put food on the table. They weren't pampered millionares with useless steroid muscles.
