    Today is not a happy day in the Foreman household as all of the Georges run for cover as their normally benevolent father gets out the Scotch and proceeds to tell everybody how they done him wrong.

      It's funny how people to this day say Ali had no punch power when he KOed Foreman. Ali's KO record means ****, he didnt fight like a puncher but he could hit as hard as most heavyweights.

              - -TKO when George was up by the count of 10.

              Seconds later Ali collapsed for over 30 sec and had to be pulled off the canvas for his stool.

              Not the cut and dried black and white fight U been reading about.

                  Mythology makes you believe that Muhammad Ali, just lay on the ropes and waited for Foreman to fatigue.

                  Muhammad Ali was beating up Foreman for the majority of the fight 'So much so, Live on air? Ken Norton predicted that Muhammad Ali was going to stop George Foreman'.

                  As a Kid? I was bought the documentary 'When We Were Kings' but it was only when I watched the fight in full length 'Did I become aware of how much Ali was producing a boxing master class off the ropes'.

                    - -Eh, eh, such a masterclass he collapses and has to be carried to his stool forbav10 min breather.

                    Such a masterclass that sustains such severe long term damage that Ferdie and Herbert forbid him from taking the proffered $5mil offer of a rematch in Indonesia to instead fight club fighter Wepner in Podunk USA for a million where he looked like spit roasted shyte on a stick to sustain further damage.

                    Do U drink the purple Slurple koolaid or strawberry fields forever?
