How did Foreman generate so much power with such short movements?

he wasnt that big. he didnt weigh more than 220 when he was in his prime.

 

Check the weight difference vs his opposition. A difference of 25-30lbs or 15% of body weight explains the effect.

 

Well you fell into that! I was hoping I could get one of you Foreman fans to admit his real KO%. So vs true heavyweights his KOs were 66.6%? For a socalled "knockout killer" 66.6% is really a joke....Good job!:good

 

He didnt have that kind of advantage in his prime. He maybe 10 pounds max. 25-30? Only when he was old, that extra weight was fat and at the expense of a speed disadvantage that was only made up for with an improved defense and an attention to timing.

 

Yeah lets pull numbers from his second career when he was in his 40s because he went the distance more often so that must mean his power was bad.

 

Yea them numbers were skewed because 5 of the times he went the distance he was over 43 and it was his second part to his career. SUB 43 year old Foreman has a 90.9% KO RATIO against opponents north of 225.

 

That's about as high as Danny Williams :think

 

Danny Williams career ko% is around 59% and he is 38 years old. Before the age of 42 Foreman KO'd 90.9% of his opponents who weighed more then 225. Peace.

 

Prime Foreman was 215/225lbs. 15 out of his 48 opponents in the 70's were under 200lbs, and 6 more were under 205lbs.....That's 21 or almost half.....

 

Danny Williams is still very active. He has a chance to overtake Big George.

 

He was a naturally powerful puncher, flat out. His power was innate.

 

Most of Foreman's 90.9% KOs were vs Cuiserweights. But vs true heavyweights, Willams has more KOs.....

 

Yea he has to KO his next 40 opponents in the next 4 years for that to happen.

 

No George Foreman has knocked out 83.95% of his opponents during his career. That number includes many fights when he was 40 plus. 90.9% is his ko% against opponents who were in your terms "real heavyweights".

 

witchcraft.
