      the average guy does not know how to fight and is a lot smaller than George, so no chance.

        Average American male between 20 and 39 years old is 5'9" and a little south of 200Lbs with a 40" waist. Even allowing the younger part of this range is likely to be a little leaner that still doesn't speak of someone in tremendous shape or very big.


        Also you really can't imagine the difference fight training and experience makes.




        I believe the old dude here is a former Italian champion but the young dude is fit and got some training, so he's already ahead of Mr Average by a margin. This **** ain't close...

        I'm with Big Old George over Lardy Joe Average by a country mile.


        Ha Just looked into it a bit, Old dude here was Ernesto Bergamasco an Italian 140Lb challenger who fell short of a national title twice and was something like 63 or 64 when that video was shot.

          No most people can’t punch

          George still hits the bag that’s more than enough training for a former heavyweight champ to wipe the floor with some randoms

          George was also street fighting before he started boxing

            NO. He is a natural born fighter and takes good care of himself and he is a big strong guy and a huge puncher. The average 25 year old can't beat him without a gun, club or knife. a young George Foreman type 25 year old with no boxing experience could beat him but guys like that are rare. Jack Dempsey beat up two robbers at the same time and had them begging him to stop hitting them when he was 84 years old, a heavyweight boxing champion even when very old is a dangerous opponent. they can still hit like the kick of a mule and they don't forget how to fight.

              A riot broke out During a heavyweight championship match That Big George was commentating on

              Someone picked a chair up and was about to b1tch slap Soy Lampley

              Big George stopped it, “I wouldn’t do that if I were you, son.”

              Believe Big George can still beat n1gg@s up

                90% of street fights usually starts and ends with the sucker punch so I guess it depends on who throws first
