Post by Nile4000 »

The Holmes that barely beat Witherspoon vs the Dokes that drew with Mike Weaver. Who would win?

A prime Larry Holmes would overcome the speed and power prime version of Dokes behind his legendary left jabs and combinations to take a 15 round split decision. Dokes would have his moments nailing Holmes with his jabs and speedy punches probably in the middle rounds, but Holmes would still overcome and solve his speed by cutting him off the ring and scoring with great left jabs and right hands to take a hard fought 15 round split decision like I said earlier.
