Incredible round. As good as Holy vs Bowe round 10. This round is not very known though. First time I see it.
Excellent round. Also the type of round people should remember when they see Thurman, Joshua, Wilder or Lomachenko wobble
That's How Holy was Being Labeled @ the Time... Cooper was a Replacement for What was Supposed to Be Mike Tyson...But the Severity of the Desiree Washington Rape Allegations Forced Mike to Pull Out... Seeing Cooper Come DANGEROUSLY Close to Stopping Holyfield Certainly DIDN'T Ingratiate Him to Boxing Fans, who Thought he was Just a Blown Up Crusier BABYSITTING the Title that was Rightfully Mike's... Honestly, it Wasn't Until LOSING the 1st Bowe Fight that Holyfield BEGAN Getting his Proper Level of Heavyweight Respect... His Reign was Considered a JOKE Until Bowe... REED
It was a legitimate knock down by the way. Holyfield would have been on the floor if it wasn't for the ropes. Holy was on queer street after the punches that he took.
Yup, I distinctly remember a magazine headline back in the day that read: "With every defense Holyfield loses respect". He had failed to stop both old men, Foreman and Holmes, and now was shaken up by a club fighter. Funny thing is....Foreman went on to knock out undefeated Moorer for the title, Holmes was the first man to defeat Ray Mercer, and Cooper had more success against an undefeated Moorer than he did against Holyfield. Neither foreman or Holmes would ever be stopped again and foreman fought big punchers like Morrison and Alex Stewart and Holmes fought Oliver McCall who managed to cold cock Lennox Lewis So I’m hindsight Holyfield’s criticism was unfair
This fight just made it to the Turkish Sports channel? Stay tuned fellow Turks next week we're gonna show coverage of 1976 Olympics
I did not realize you live in Turkey. I will not say anything about cordless phones coming out I promise...
