Pure honesty from Larry Holmes.
was real and mean, but he's praying for his old rival to fight through his current medical crisis.Michael SpinksIn fact, Holmes knocked out Leon in the 3rd round of their 1981 title fight -- only to get beat TWICE by Leon's bro Michael later in his career.in a Las Vegas hospital, we asked Holmes how he felt about the situation ... and his response was about as real as it gets.
"Leon was a fighter that ... if you ain't ready, don't get in the ring with him! Because he's ready. He fought hard, man.""I didn't really like him as much as a fighter because he said some things to my wife that I didn't like," Holmes said ..."And, I held it back on him a little bit."Holmes added,"You don't want to kick a man while he's down. That's what a lot of people want you to do, kill him while he's down.
"And, I hope that I didn't hurt him, but I probably was one of the guys that caused whatever problem that he's having now." Now, Holmes says he's calling for the entire boxing community to pray for Larry -- explaining,"He was one guy that he gave it his all."
