          Ha, I thought Foreman 2.0 was alot more smooth and less wild than 1.0.

            It's that pawing thing that killed me with the older Foreman. That palm toward the opponent thing. Technically not "punching form" but guard/defense.

              He did that in his prime years as well. Granted I hav'nt seen a lot of older Foreman fights, but he certainly did it in a couple fights I have seen.

                Yes, he always did it but watch something like Foreman Frasier compared to Foreman Morrison and it's no comparison. His forms is so damn ugly in many of the later fights. He's got his palms toward the opponent half the time.

                I say that as a fan of the guy. No bashing.

                  Deontae Wilder.

                  The most beautiful, aesthetic punching forms are Juan Manuel Marquez, and Linares.

                    Oh, I did'nt think you were bashing him. I actually agree that his form was ugly as hell lol. I'll go back and watch a few fights of his. Hav'nt watched a Foreman fight in years.

                      Ah, I gotcha. It never bothered me too much because he would drop that thing in like a hammer sometimes too.

                      I just realized what you were talking about, that hybrid crab shit he would do to keep people away. Yea, that was kind of sloppy.
