    "Rusty" George Foreman vs Ron Lyle Video

    Some exciting HW fight here





    Some remark: One can say that's no more such boxing in HW, but truth is that Foremen simple was a little bit "rusty" in that bout and fight at the expense of his health instead of boxing skill. So it is exciting but hardly presents an example of good boxing, rather some bloodshed brawling.

    So should all fights be like this one or boxing deserves better than just thoughtless brawls?

    No, it's a sport. Boxers should compete in their skills rather then in amount of their health.

    There is nothing more exciting in this sport than watching two heavyweights smash each other's heads in.You can watch a couple of Asian or Mexican midgets doing the same thing and it just doesn't have the same impact.



    The action,the crowd,the announcing.....all this created perhaps the greatest heavyweight brawl of all time.

          Not only was Foreman "rusty" and out of shape.He was still bewildered and in shock at being KO'd by Muhammad Ali.He was also depressed and in despair.Mentally, he had no business being in that ring.

          But I remember watching that fight and yelling and jumping up and down.Also laughing and rooting for more.Great great fight to watch!!!
