From the maxboxing forums...
Berbick was insane. Years after he fought Holmes, he started making these wild accusations about Larry colluding with Berbick's ex-wife. In one of the funniest clips I've ever seen, Berbick was ranting about Holmes to a TV camera when the 41-year-old Holmes, dressed in a blue-and-white running suit, ran across a huge limosine, jumped off, and nailed Berbick with a senton plancha.
I saw that when it happened. I cracked up when Trevor kept yelling "Larry Holmes kicked me..." after Larry landed the drop-kick.
The funniest thing to me was thinking of Larry's state of mind. I know Trevor was bananas but I have never been mad enough to run over car roofs to kick someone. That's some straight Shaft shit right there.

Berbick was a paranoiac. He's got all kinds of excuses at to why Tyson beat him, weirdo conspiracy theories. Around the time that he was Canadian heavyweight champion he, one of those Boxing News writers did a book on the guys Tyson fought, good book. he got deported back to Jamaica eventually

Yeah i think it was Dominic Calder-Smith, excellent read. Berbick was claiming they poisened his fruit and sent in toxic stuff through the vents or something i seem to remember?! Old Trev is a bit of a nut job it seems.

Didn't berbick fail a drugs test and then claim that someone had been blowing drugs through the vents in his hotel room.

That was a funny clip...don't know why these clips always play for 2/3 seconds and then stop etc on my PC though

It's so frustrating.

What ever happend to Lloyd Honeyghun managing Trevor Berbick.... I was reading through the archives here and in 2003 he was a rumoured opponent for Matt Skelton on the undercard of a Toney Oakey fight.
Don't read the archives if you think you might have an ounce of knowledge on this game and think you can predict an outcome of a fight.
Read a thread (after Brewster vs Meehan) where I gave Holyfield a chance vs Brewster and said Williams would beat him.
It gets worse... I said Skelton and SPROTT would be competitive vs him (and I recommend Frank to try and pursue it) and said Harrison only needed one more fight against a decent level opponent before he is ready.
Holybejesus.
