    Not that George would get the political decision, but more like losing the battle before winning the war.
    LMAO, he won't fight a Cruiserweight, but he emasculates a dude twice his size who feasts on sloppy punchers!?!?!?

      This might be your first intelligent and well-informed post.
      LOL. Keep trying........

        I don't need to "try". it's a non-effort. You do this to yourself. It's funny, if a little pathetic.

        We all know you were valedictorian of your graduating class at Clown School. But maybe that doesn't carry as much currency here as you'd imagined?

          Easy win for Fury.

          ….If Tommy Morrison, who was no "boxer", could out George for 12 rounds, then Fury doing the same is a foregone conclusion......provided, of course, you could get George into the ring with him, which I highly doubt. They couldn't even get him to rematch Shulz.

          George was great; but he knew his limitations as well as anyone.

            Who do you take in a fight?

            Big George 6'4', 257 lbs

            Gypsy King 6'9", 263 lbs

                George Ver2.0 and beyond was in my opinion, one of the few fighters of the stature he earned/held/obtained/deserved who not only "knew his limitations as well as anyone" but was, for the most part, pretty open about some of it, I mean, in comparison to other people who work in the same field. I think after the Moorer victory, while doing commentary for what was maybe a Bowe fight (or less possibly a Lewis fight) Lampley made some comment to George about maybe a prospective fight coming off between George and the fighter who is slipping my memory at the moment, and George, without a beat or a missed breath just as honestly as can be, says (basically the equivalent of) "Nope." I find that kinda thing refreshing when everyone else is seemingly all about coming off as the "hardest" man from the deepest pit of hell etc.

Think about this, would the Foreman who fought Moorer and Morrison beat an earlier version of himself. No way in hell.
                  It's impossible to argue with Rusty because he speaks word salad. His sentences are written with proper grammar but they don't make any sense and hold no logic so it throws you off. One minute he's going off about how great Loughran and Walker is, the next minute hes saying Foreman would get washed by Bermain Stiverne.

                  I don't know how he came to the conclusion that Wilder is such a beast when 30 out of 40 of his Koes were against heavyweights ranked below 400 or not even ranked at all. Unless of course he just reads the news and falls for the hype. Why does history repeat itself so often? You would think in this section of the forum there would be an immunity to it.

                  Fury's real level is around that of a Wladimir. Wladimir was old so Fury edged him in a boring fight, prime for prime it's pretty close.

                  That being said, Wlad and Fury get stomped by much greater fighters and time may never tell because the competition right now is garbage.

                      I like Fury and think his combination of size and style is unique in heavyweight history. But Foreman is far superior to anyone he has ever fought.
                      where did you get that lie from George never was that skilled and fury fought mutiple better movers then him
