    Where does George Foreman's comeback rank in sports history...

    Foreman's comeback to regain the title at 45 years of age, where does it rank in your mind as "Greatest Comebacks"

    ESPN's "Who's Number 1?" has George at #10


    I can't remember the other list exactly, but I think it was the list with "Greatest Athletes over 40, or accomplishment by someone over 40" {something like that}

    George was in the top 5, maybe even #2, can't remember, but I do remember Mike Greenberg and Mike Gollic ("MIKE & MIKE" guys) say that George either did not belong that high or not on the list, can't remember, I was in shock he wasn't #1, sorry...there argument was that George was getting his ass kicked for most of the fight and I guess in their minds he landed a "Lucky Punch"
