GERRY COONEY | Fighting Larry Holmes, befriending Ali, battling addiction, and 'The Simpsons' fame

[@jamie.777]

Honestly, is there a NICER retired athlete? What gentle and kind man. He is so polite, he made sure to compliment the young man interviewing him a couple of times. Thanks! This interview lifted my spirits.

[@rick188888]

He was also that nice and polite during interviews when he was fighting.

[@genaholshouser7148]

Glad Gerry is such an awesome role model ..I respect the work him and Larry are doing also.

[@mrfrank4583]

An incredibly honest, real, genuine, authentic man.

[@johntruth3713]

Brilliant, cool young interviewer showing respect, Gerry being the gent he is. Should be on TV more.

[@pastafagioli321]

Cooney, tough all around. Intelligent man. He's been blessed, and he knows it..

Great interview interviewer very good

[@JoelShrallow-rl3yt]

Great to see Gerry doing well. He had the best left hook of all time IMO.

[@deadarmd]

Like him or not his fight with holmes was pretty good. For a guy who wasnt ready he sure fought hard for 13 rounds

[@gerb7821]

Great 🍀

[@jamie.777]

Gerry is all class

[@mikehopkins4040]

Nice not to be bitter,just getting on with life.

[@MrOliverwoods]

Fanstatic left hook to the liver.

[@janswart9800]

Great interview, thank you. All the while as I watched this, I wondered why the older Gerry Cooney looks so familiar, and then it hit me: he's a dead ringer for LBJ.

[@ElaineBlazosek]

Jake Paul would have easily handled a Prime Cooney and definite KO for Jake

[@francescoschettino5726]

cooney is alongside Tyson, Julian JAckson, DAvid Haye is a pure Fast twitch power puncher.

[@marcbrisebois4301]

I don't know he never mentioned Cuevas said Moore was welterweight then he jumped 6 years to the 3rd Leonard fight which Leonard won every round Duran fought hella dirty gave him 55 stitches (but he staggered Leonard with a right right at the end)

[@thomaslemond5913]
