HOLMES, LARRY TRAINING CAMP CAP (BELONGED TO EDDIE FUTCH)

Larry Holmes (born November 3, 1949) is a former professional boxer. He grew up in Easton, Pennsylvania, which gave birth to his boxing nickname, The Easton Assassin. Holmes, whose left jab is considered one of the greatest weapons in the history of sports, was the WBC Heavyweight Champion from 1978 to 1983, The Ring Heavyweight Champion from 1980 to 1985, and the IBF Heavyweight Champion from 1983 to 1985. He made twenty successful title defenses, second only to Joe Louis' twenty-five. Holmes won his first forty-eight professional bouts, almost matching Rocky Marciano's streak of 49 straight wins, including victories over Earnie Shavers, Ken Norton, Muhammad Ali, Gerry Cooney, Tim Witherspoon and Marvis Frazier. He is frequently ranked by many boxing experts as one of the greatest heavyweight fighters of all time. Offered here is an original Larry Holmes training camp cap which belonged to his trainer, Hall Of Famer, Eddie Futch.
