i know you didnt just clarifying before others try to decapatate me!!!but you're right that 1 dimintion was enough for him

[T-97]

Yea he was,

But when you have that good of a chin and that kinda power, You can't really blame him

Foreman was who he was because he was 1D, His oppenents wern't thinking Oh dear he is gunna outbox me. They were thinking this dude is gunna knock my ****in head off!

Foreman was awesome imo.

He could box, but often chose not to.

When he came back the ability to box with the younger guys wasn't there anymore, he was just looking to set them up and knock them out.


Here's a young George Foreman busting up Chuvalo's face with the jab. Of course it's not that hard to look like a decent boxer against Chuvalo but interesting nonetheless.

Foreman was a beast....I think he was more rounded than people know...Why stray from what was working. No need to waste time boxing when you could get a K.O. and go about your business.And he claimed his water was drugged against Ali.....

[MANGLER]

George didn't have a lotta variety to his game but he was great at walkin guys down and beatin em to a pulp. You can get away wit doin only 1 thing if you're really great at it.

When you hurt everyone you hit, it is easy to think you are invincible. George paid the price for that against Ali.

George Foreman was a good fighter with a terrible punch in his first stint as a boxer. After his comeback he became a great fighter with a smart plan and a bigger heart. he could knock you out with a grazing shot. his jab had some mustard on it and if he hurt you he finished you off. You don't need much more to be a complete boxer. As for his fight with Ali he lost that match before he entered the ring. Ali beat him in his mind making him angry before the fight. As many say never hate your oppenent. Ali was great at making you hate him. Many fans watched his fights because they hated him so much they wanted to see him get knocked out. George let Ali get in his mind and punched himself out in the hot heat. Ali then KO'd an exhausted George Foreman. I think george was so tired he just couldn/t get up more then he was hurt. His chin was tested many times in his comeback and he proved to be a great fighter. If you look up his record you will see he was only knocked out that 1 time by Ali.I remember at the time when George was making his run everyone wanted to see him fight Tyson. I still wonder what would have happened if that fight would have taken place.

[TEXSTRO]

I think foreman would have lost......and possibly hurt..Tyson at the time was still bad ass...You cant take hits from Tyson and hope that later in the fight he was gonna knock him out like he did with Moore. It would have been to Dangerous for Foreman... It would have abeen bitter sweet because they're both my Fav. HW...

[THE REED]

I think he was a little one dimensional, he was just extremely good at that one dimension. Sometimes that can be enough.
