Big George fought like an Idiot, (Probably due to Ali's brilliance of mind games) and didnt really land much flush, so it aint like he took Foremans best shots on the chin. But theres no dis*****g the fact he had a GREAT Chin!
    I would agree Earnie was the Hardest hitter of em all!

      Cooper was just a bum that Ali took lightly so he paid the price for it. he got up and showed his real self by getting serious and knocking cooper out. but you are right because Tyson did have a punchers chance so anything can happen when you have a heavy hitter like that. but Ali has never been knocked out so its hard to picture him being stopped after seeing him being hit by all of those knockout punchers.

        Just like Tyson had a hard time with fighters who uses the ring, had boxing ability, and would be there even if he landed his power shots.

          Ali may hav took Cooper lightly but his chin was checked all the same and u cant train chin anyway.
          To be fair tho i think Ali's chin improved after that fight when he started to fill out and mature

            are thats what happened,he did'nt knock Cooper out for a start Cooper was stopped on cuts and he cheated to stay in the fight ,im not saying Cooper was a great fighter but your statement is false as based on making ALI look good ,your discritption of the fight is very broad

            im taking nothing away from Ali by the way he was a great great fightr

                there is actually no point to what you just said. Cooper was a fighter that Ali took lightly. Ali wouldnt take Tyson lightly so it does not matter. Tyson took Douglas lightly and he got knocked out. Ali would come in prepared the way he did with liston, Foreman, and Bonavena. None of those 3 fighters knocked him down. and why? because he was prepared. and a TKO is basically a KO. a TKO is when a fighter can not continue due to punches from the other fighter. Ali's punches caused the cuts on Cooper. Cooper would have got knocked out anyway because Ali was really bringing it. i just dont seeing Tyson beating arguebally the greatest fighter of all time when Tyson has not proved to be nothing but a hype job. and yall are saying that cooper dropped Ali with a left look, and? the point is that he got up and showed the heart of the champion that he is by stopping Cooper. thats all that matters.

                  this has to be a joke or somethin because that was mad dumb. Sonny Listen is talked about even to this day as a better version of Tyson. And Foreman would murder Tyson are you crazy!!!!!!!!!?

                    Tyson would WRECK Liston (1of my all time favs) quicksharp man

                    Foreman i could see KOing Mike but i could also make a case for Tyson to win that too but if i had to bet id go with Big George!
