In my opinion it was because of what he did to Muhammed Ali that was heart breaking too watch grown men cried that night watching their hero get beat up in such a way because we all could see there was something wrong with Ali even Larry instead of punching him outta respect he should have just tapped or jabbed him on the gloves instead he went for hooks on his head and even gave him a couple of rabbit punches Ali was like a teacher a sparring partner to Larry he teached him alot about boxing but Larry always envied Ali and how much people loved him and everyone knows that

Larry was an out-boxer like Ali with a fast and powerful jab and fast nibble foot work…. He would keep away from Tyson’s power while keeping hit at bay with the jab and survive the early rounds of Tyson onslaught with ease and then by round 10 when Tyson’s stamina is down he would fight inside and beat the hell out of Tyson and most likely win by TKO

As much attention that Joe Louis gets, I still say he is the most underrated Heavyweight champion of all time. Dude went 70+ and only lost 3 times. Of those 3, he lost 1 when he was early in his career and he lost the last 2 by being forced to come out of retirement to box cause he was broke. The Government took almost every penny he had ever earned alongside greedy promoters. He was basically getting 1% of his (modern day) multiple millions. The sad truth was that people cheered him as an African American boxer in the 40's as their Champion to represent USA against Germany and yet after the war, those people turned their backs on Joe.

When CUS died Tyson was left vulnerable and wasn't equipped to handle the pressures of all the celebrity & fame. When your Champ everybody wants a piece of you. He was so young and inexperienced Coming from a broken home and finding Cus and Boxing which saved him. Despite all of that he managed to still live a good life. Even to this day, he says he battles with the loss of his little girl who got caught up on his treadmills power cord and was strangled. He's been through a lot that's for sure.

Umm no and seriously ? His trainers pushed Ali cause of the serious money at stake here and the fact that greedy promoters were threatening to withhold a lot of it if he didn't fight. Ali also couldn't knock his ego down as it was always his toughest opponent. Holmes was there to fight and do a job. The Ref wouldn't call the match, Holmes then tried to KO Ali to end the fight already and he realized that Ali simply wouldn't go down. He pulled punches to beat out the timer and to stop hurting Ali. A true champion in my eyes is Holmes.

This is why Holmes has more honour than Tyson. Holmes didn’t want Ali to take the fight and showed his reluctance during the fight to hit Ali with spiteful shots. Tyson/King did all they could to get Holmes out of retirement, who was older than Ali was when he fought Holmes. They wanted to pad out Tysons CV and Holmes, a future all of famer at that point, was an easy target.

Larry was from the same era and was arguably as good as Ali was and he had a higher caliber resume' too. Larry was also past his prime here, he just realized something was wrong with Ali even before the fight. He tried like hell before the fight and after it to stop it and nothing worked.

It’s sad when they get older and recognize when something was hard for them to do. Takes a lot to know your wrong but you still do it. He could have stopped and ended his career instead he kept on fighting. Takes a lot of courage and balls to do that. On both ends.
