Heavy hands stay heavy, don't matter how old you are. My grandpa could still whoop a nikka ass well into his 80s.
I still expect an average 20-30 year old to be able to get the upper hand most of the time. but i wouldn't be surprised if he beat someones ass either

I’m not going to be responsible for harming an old man plus I’m not laying hands on a Coli icon but Holmes would beat the brakes of most of you.

He’s 69 years old now.

I’m sure he still “looks good” for 69 but he doesn’t have the punch power he used to and wouldn’t have the stamina of a decent in shape person more than 1/2 his age. :yeshrug:

I’m 32 and a former college athlete (NOTHING like Holmes in his prime :whoa:) and I’m pretty sure I’d wash him these days specifically because of his age more than anything
Do you/have you sparred regularly?:usure:

I box for cardio at the gym usually about 3-4 times a week

I haven’t sparred with anyone. And I’m definitely NOT overstating who I am by any means. But a 69 year old out of shape Larry Holmes isn’t keeping up with the average regularly fit adult man more than 1/2 his age who goes to the gym 5 times a week :manny:

:unimpressed:

He doesn't have to keep up, one punch will do.

Ok :yeshrug:

No 70 year old is knocking me out with one punch, or even going to get a clean shot :mjlol:

But if you got that little faith in yourself that’s on you :manny:

You don't even spar, what's to say you can even take a punch from a former boxer, let alone someone who fought at heavy.

Anyway you said the average adult man, now you changing it to yourself. I never said that, you did. So what is it killer? The average adult man or you?
