    If Dempsey can walk through him, foreman will push his **** all the way in.

    Foreman had no trouble with sluggers. He'd make Firpo eat hard leather, it'd be over very early.

    Foreman was almost taken out by Lyle

    And don't give me that excuse that he wasn't the "same" guy ... yeah he lost to Ali but he KOed like 5 guys in the ring the very next day or something

    Foreman is massively overrated on here

    Firpo was awful.

    Foreman walks through him in 2 or less. Too tough, too strong, too powerful, too good in a fight.

    Luis Firpo.

    One of the worst fighters ever captured on film.

    Why can't he just knock him out? :-(

    His superiority far exceeds mere knocking out. He will **** firpo till he loves him.

    Thanks for calling me on that, totally forgot. That was the exception rather than the rule for me though, considering George hammered Frazier twice, Norton and Chuvalo.

    Lyle was one tough ****er too, he battered Shavers well before Earnie went on to challenge Ali and Holmes.

    Still don't think Firpo causes any trouble whatsoever. In fact, Lyle beats Firpo too.

    Firpo wasn't good at all, Foreman by total destruction, like a david tua left hook hitting Floyd Mayweather :scaredas:
