    If Foreman would have beat the count against Ali?

    How would the fight have played out if George Foreman would have beat the count?

    Foreman only missed beating the count by one second.And it was right at the bell,so he would not of had to fight anymore that round,but would have gotten a minute rest in between rounds?

    Would Ali have finished him off in the 9th round?

    Would it have gone the full 15 rounds?

    What do you think?

    Wait what tape are you watching. Foreman easily beat the count. Dude, it was an Ali fight...it was fixed. Thats why one judge had Foreman winning 0 rounds.

      I timed it moron!!

      Foreman was down exactly 12 seconds.You don't go by the announcer's count you idiot.You go by the referee's count!!

      Watch it again,and time it for yourself.Then come back on here and admit you are wrong moron.

        George was clearly exhausted and it was the first time he was knocked down and his aura of invincibility gone, if anything he would of been more reckless, frustrated that an "old man" knocked him down and Ali who now knows that he could hurt Foreman would of nailed him over and over again.

        As we know Ali gets stronger in later rounds and George was clearly done.

            Foreman couldn't even punch. The rest between rounds wouldn't have helped anywhere near enough.

              Ali would've stopped him later...Foreman was gone.

                It was an Ali fight and an Ali thread , hence the ban.

                When a fighter is down first the referee makes sure the other fighter goes to the neutral corner then he starts counting , so many other fighters who did not get a long count can be down for 12 seconds without the fight being stopped , but Foreman got a short count.

                  They'll try for any excuse to discredit Ali's win. The idiot's banned now just bolo for his next incarnation in a new alt.

                  For the record they do this because they have an ethno-centric hate for Americans and want to discredit any and all American Heavyweights in a pathetic attempt to boost their favorite Euro-Heavies. Some also have a bias against any fighter from pre-1990 as in their minds those "stone age" fighters from the 80s and earlier couldn't beat even the worst fighters of today.

                  PS. After trying to discredit Ali they no doubt would turn around and try to discredit Foreman for being KOed by Ali in the first place. That's how these intellectual lightweights operate.
