    George Foreman owns Joe Frazier

    Foreman Frazier, but who the hell is Jimmy Young. apparently Young knocked down Foreman in the 12th, and went on and beat him by a UD. who is this guy? it sounds like it was a really bad loss for foreman. maybe the worst in his career.


    poor smokin Joe. He should never have to fight foreman.

    Jimmy Young is the same person some ppl on this forum felt like he was robbed against ali, but others think ali won that fight.

          Why don't you just watch the fight and make your own opinion?





          My opinion is that Young was a very slick, capable boxer with a solid chin. And George Foreman was mentally ill - yes, I mean that - after his experience in Africa. If George had faced this guy before Ali or had beaten Ali, he would have walked through Young like he walked through everyone else. As it was, he was sick unto death and in fact retired after having some weird life-changing experience in his locker room after this fight.

            10 or so of youngs losses came after he was punch drunk so to speak. He is the only person that ALMOST... neat foreman, ali and norton. He beat foreman, Split with Norton and many say beat ALi...Great great under rated boxer.

              Yeah I've seen the whole of the young - foreman fight. George didn't do much in the early rounds, he was mainly moving and what not. In the later rounds when he started to attack he was already behind on the cards and he discovered that Jimmy had one hell of a defense and a chin. bad style match up for foreman and also George fought the wrong fight.
