I just saw Foreman vs. Lyle for the first time and all I can say is DAMN!!! What a fight! The ebb and flow was reminiscent of the modern day classic Castillo vs. Corrales. With all the hurtin' bombs that were thrown, it looked like it could've been the 20th round of Rocky I. That was the best heavyweight fight I have ever seen. I recommend it to all ya'll.

this is one of a handful of fights i immediately bought on DVD after i first saw them..... i probably watch it every two weeks, i love it

i swear when foreman goes down the last time himself he leaves a big ass slobber stain on the canvas....

great fight though, for anyone who hasnt seen it, make it a point to do so

I heard it said that Foreman split Lyles mouthpiece in that fight , and that Foreman needed dental surgery afterwards because Lyle jammed a couple of Foremans teeth into his gum.

And Lyle did not start his boxing career until he was 29. He learned to box in prison and nearly died there when he was stabbed.

FOREMAN vs. LYLE DAMN!!!!!!!!!!
