Re: Holyfield VS Ali

I could've sworn I saw Bowe do it. But that was on his "hep" night I guess. And Toney was of course playing Holmes to Holy's Ali. (Learned that right here! but I got all confused along the way and earned the scorn of an esteemed contributor along the way) I think it's possible. Not probab...
