    Just kidding, but seriously you're right. That thick neck and trap of his really gave him a lot of good cushion to absorb impact. I was always a fan of Big George
    They're all on peds, so I wouldn't be surprised

        It was really an off the cuff remark about his big head and power, but considering that the 70s saw a lot of steroid use, especially in the NFL, it wouldn't surprise me at all if true.

          That is a roided up Evan Fields. A few guys would have been dropped by that shot. Old Big George Foreman, had a hell of a chin though.

            That was one of those clean powerful shots that is satisfying to watch, no home owner..

            I'd say it would drop most heavyweights, George looked like he was rocked heavily by it.

              Foreman, Bowe, and McCall could take that.

              It would be hard to find a fighter that tough today.

If Klitsko had flinched with Evander...

                    I think a big majority of HWs would have atleast hit the deck, some would have been stopped. He had George in trouble with that and the follow up shots but George was very durable. He fought some huge punchers in his second career and never went down.
