If Muhammad Ali and George Foreman had an immediate rematch, who would have won?

[street bully]

Ali could take George's punchers. No one else could. Ali had one of the greatest chins of all times, and out boxed george rather easily that night. Same outcome. And if George tried to slow his pace down so that he wouldn't tire he would get outboxed even more clearly and KOed.

No disrespect, but your logic is severely flawed. Every true boxing fan knows that styles make fights. Just because Foreman KOd people faster than Ali did means absoluely nothing as far as who's better.

Foreman beats Ali 9 out 0f 10 times? As most people will say, Ali's style was perfect for beating Foreman. Very little would have changed after the first fight, other than Foreman being smarter. He would still get outboxed.

I'm not quite sure where you're coming from or what your objective is with this thread. You come on here with claims that Foreman is faster than Ali, quicker reflexes, a better boxer, a smarter fighter and a better chin than Ali and you expect to be taken seriously? I like Foreman, but you need to be a bit more objective.

Also, look up the definition of "run-on sentence."

Shut this baby down.

Ali was all wrong for Foreman and would have beat him no matter what.

A lot of people just think Ali "got lucky" with the rope-a-dope tactic, but Ali was out boxing and landing shots the whole fight. Foreman could barely touch him with a clean shot.

Styles make fights.

I agree. Ali was whoopin his ass the whole fight. Foreman wasn't landing many clean shots, as you said. I made a similar thread in here a while back but I've recently re-watched the bout and I don't see how Foreman could beat Ali. I just don't see it.

Knowledgeable boxing fans don't subscribe to the triangle theory, and you clearly are. You can't be serious with this logic? Fighter A beats fighter B and fighter B beats fighter C. Does this mean fighter A automatically beats fighter C? No, it doesn't and it's been proven false time and time again.

Ali would've won
I'm not saying that Foreman isn't strong
infact he is
he is one of the strongest and greatest boxers of all times
but Ali was fast
Ali was able to take Foreman's punches and punch him back
my opinion is that Ali would win over Foreman again and again and again

[sweetpea87]

I always wonder why there never was a rematch between the two.

[BigMacFoster]

Because Ali never wanted one,Pretty simple to understand really.Foreman was in the running for a title shot ater he ****d Frazier for the second time but perhaps Ali knew his limits at this stage.
