"And THEN... I (ever so gently) went... to feel... for his big.... black... penis... and I found it... RIGHT THERE!"
“TONIGHT! on A... B... C... Larr-y Holmes ... over-the-hill at 31 years of age? He says no... the body is still taut... nimble... muscular... the flesh a smoldering, chocolate bronze suggesting con-siderable prowess... but the challenger, Tevor Ber-bick says TO THE CON-TRARY, the champ is ready to be taken... At the weigh-in, cha-otic scenes... Berbick, shorts leaving LITTLE to the imagination, and you saw it RIGHT THERE! The pronounced bulge which ... raised... the ire ... of the champion...”
Hate to Go "There", But Larry Holmes Has Always Been a THIRSTY, Recognition STARVED Sort Who Could Concoct Some Shit Like This... WHY Bring This to Light NOW, Nearly 30 Years After Cosell Died??? Of ALL the Fighter's Cosell was Exposed to During his Career THE ONLY 1 to Speak Up is Larry Holmes, Coincidentally???... Who Knows, Maybe Cosell WAS a Peter Gazing, Sausage Groping Queer, but the TIMING + Holmes' Perpetual Inferiority Complex Raises REED's Suspicions... REED
"Welp, REED Bee Bee Ethhhh, I'd just to say.... FUCK you! And... FUCK Fightbeat! And thinthh we on a public forum, yall can thuck my muthafuckin dick!"
Holmes told this story in more detail already in his memoir Against The Odds, which was published around '95 or so (actually I think this clip is from the book) According to the book Holmes obviously held grudge towards Cosell, but considering that Howard was a full-blown drunk at the time, I do believe this
Not to Be SEXIST, but REED Doesn't Understand the BENEFIT of a Straight Male Revealing Something Like This...You'll Receive ZERO Sympathy from Your Peers and Many Will Question YOUR Sexuality... When Terry Crews Did it, Shit was Weird...When Sugar Ray Leonard Said a Former Coach Gave him a Blow-Job, Shit was Weird...Same w/Holmes and Cosell... There's NO Plus Side to Something Like This, Especially if You Fail to Name the Groper OR if Said Groper is Deceased...Honestly, the ONLY Recourse a Straight Male Has is to PHYSICALLY or VERBALLY Escalate the Situation AS it Occurs... Otherwise, Take it to the Grave Bruh... REED
And for Those Unfamiliar w/WHO Terry Crews Is... Said a Hollywood Film Exec Approached Him and His Wife at a Party and Grabbed his Junk... REED
LOL. I think Reed has a point. Rocky was dead for damn near 20 years and had retired for damn near 30 when Larry went off on one about him. Larry never gave a fuck about how long a person was dead before he put the boot in.
I know who Terry Crews is. He's the guy Lonzo Harris threated with a "Shoe Programme in Pelican Bay" for declining to shoot some guy called Jake after Jake had tried to creep into Lonzos bedroom to look at Eva Mendes pointy titties. They made a movie about it.
Larry was just not one of the greatest heavyweights I ever saw, but one of the greatest fighters I ever saw. But he turned me off when he said that as that showed me he couldn't handle defeat, and he had been given gift decisions before and he reacted like that the first time one didn't go his way with Spinks, whom he should have handled. I thought Norton beat him, and I know that both Tim Witherspoon and Carl Williams beat him. Williams won that fight clean by probably 5 rounds. Still -Larry Holmes is Top Ten all time Heavyweight and I won a lot on him when he stopped Cooney.
