George Foreman is the GOAT not Ali

[Alx.]

I don't think you watched the Ali fight, champ. Ali was ahead on the scorecards.

First notion that the guy doesn't know what he's talking about.

Common myth says Ali was hammered and luckily knocked Foreman out, when in fact he won 4 of the first 5 rounds.

That fight fascinates me, of all the guys to knock George out, it was ali. Would never expect that when you see the list of punchers he fought.

In retrospect it makes sense. But a great fight for sure.

Ya, I'm still amazed by it, and by the fact that out if 76 fights only one guy ko'd him. And the one guy who did it, wasn't even considered a big puncher.

The myth is that Ali KOed Foreman with punching power in the first place.

Foreman punched himself out. He gassed from wailing away like an idiot on Ali's covered up body in the heat and sultriness of tropical Africa.

Claiming that Ali knocked out George Foreman via hard punching is not only false but ridiculous.

There is a reason why Ali ducked a rematch for the rest of his life.

I never claimed Foreman was ahead on the scorecards. (lie)

Who exactly claims anything else?

Also, what you're saying is another lie, seeing as Ali did in fact offer Foreman a rematch.

Haha ya what myth? Anyone who watches the fight can clearly see the guy was gassed and could have fallen over from a push. It's not rocket science.

Source?

I think I am not alone in believing that Ali ducked a Foreman rematch. What's with the Sports Illustrated "I want Ali again" and all that then?

There must be something more to whatever you have for sure because most agree this is the case.

And I was simply going by what you guys were talking about above, as if Ali rocked Foreman to sleep or something.

Retract my statement.

I agree, I though you were claiming different.
