Unbeaten Larry Holmes, in what amounted to little more than target practice, successfully defended his World Boxing Council heavyweight title for the 16th time Saturday night, with a 5th round technical knockout over a totally outclassed Scott Frank.

It was obvious from the outset that Frank was no match for Holmes. Holmes tattooed the challenger with several jabs in the 1st round and started following with thunderous rights. Late in the second, Holmes unleashed a ripping right uppercut as Frank staggered into the ropes. Again in the third, Holmes was all over the challenger, measuring him with a left hand and sending in punishing rights behind his snapping jab.

Another Holmes blitz early in the fourth round started swelling Frank's right eye and the champion continued to deliver punishment. Holmes unleashed a left hook followed by a right in the fourth that stopped the challenger in his tracks. But Frank continued to taunt the champion by waving his hand as Holmes moved in to deliver more punishment.
