Former champs impressions on more recent fighters.

Post by Robinson »

You guys have any quotes of former champions and what they
thought or how they felt they would have fought or done against
their successors to the throne ?

I remember reading an interview where Holmes criticized the Heavyweight division of the 90s because of the fact that Holyfield was able to move up and become a Heavyweight. You can imagine what he had to say, then, when Toney later became a prominent Heavyweight. After one of Toney's fights Toney started trash talking about Holmes in response.

I heard Sugar Ray Leonard say once that if he had fought De La Hoya that he would have tried to have out boxed him the way Mosley did.
