Too bad a rematch never happened. If Foreman got a different trainer for the rematch and learned how to counter punch and set up his shots, there is a good chance he could have beaten Ali.

      He fought a ****** fight and got his dumb ass beat!! He fought the same way in both of his careers, once a puncher always a puncher. The reason they didn't fight again is because George knew he'd get his ass kicked again.

        =======get the hell out of here. i was watching the fight, and wepner looked so sloppy and foolish against ali that a 33year old 222lb. past his prime ali looked like he was 25 and 212 in his prime.============

        ** You slap on your panties every AM and think their Ali's trunks. Wepner was one of Ali's most pitiful performances ever. You shame the memory of Ali by suggesting he looked prime. You're not an Ali fan. You're some kind of transgroupie.

          You say all of that... but you think Foreman wouldn't have learned not to sit back and let Ali lay on the ropes? Please. He might have been young and angry but he wasn't a complete moron. The rematch would've been a TKO for Foreman.
