How many times was Holmes knocked down in his career?
How many times was he floored after the Tyson fight in 1988?
Thankyou!!!

Don't forget about Mike Weaver who knocks down Holmes in the 1979 WBC title fight that makes 6 men who knocked down Larry Holmes in his career.

Weaver didn't score a knockdown over Holmes.

Weaver did appear to deck Holmes, but the referee didnt call it.
Conversely, over 20 years later Butterbean steps on his foot and swats his chest which sends Holmes stumbling into the ropes, which somehow became an offical 'knockdown'.
Bizarre.
