    Tyson-Foreman in 1990

    Was Tyson really scared of Foreman? Who would have won?

    Tyson was not afrai of Foreman and would have defeated him in my opinion. The young Foreman who beat Frazier would KO any version of Tyson in my opinion but the Foreman of 1990 was in his 40s and would have lost.

      Foreman himself said he didn’t want it with Tyson. He said he knew at that at that age he couldn’t handle Tysons speed and work rate.

        I don`t know, but man, imagine Foreman beat Tyson in 1990. What would Tyson`s legacy be like?

        Foreman was also robbed against Briggs, so Briggs fought Lennox, not George.

          Tyson is made for Foreman.

          Foreman beats Tyson today and at any point in history.

            - -Big George say U need to stop browning U sheets.

            TheChinese offered $25 mil for Foreman/Tyson in 1989. George said he'd fight Tyson anywhere for $5 mil, but before consummation, the Tiananmen Square massacre killed the deal.

            Buster in Japan was the lesser replacement.

            What grade U in?

              Tyson. He's so much faster and quicker, Foreman would be in trouble.

                That's how I see it also.

                  Foreman said his people called Tyson's, Tyson didn't want it, and Foreman was relieved because he didn't want it either.

                  They ducked each other happily.
