How good was Foreman`s performance v Cooney?

Did Lyle go down from the stoppage against Ali?

Do you even watch the fights?

 

Lol @ what Cooney did to him.

 

Talk about revisionist history and hero’s. Let’s not pretend Lewis was some slick tactician. His skill set exceeded George’s but let’s not pretend he was some perfect boxer. His defense had almost as many holes as George’s for crying out loud.

 

George never even won a decision over 12 in the 70s. He was as incomplete as they come at championship level.

 

He didn’t need to win a decision. He knocked em all out...almost. You can’t tell me Lewis wasn’t carefully managed either his whole career. Both were managed well.

 

Yeah he was 40 years old in that fight or close to it

Keep reaching

 

He ended up an exhausted mess against Ali and Young. I do give him credit for doing some rounds with that Argentine light heavyweight though.

 

Yeah def was arrogant and thought he could put anyone away early. Had nervous problems (was tense so got tired quicker when he was young), pacing problems. He had issue for sure. He just had a lot of other great qualities to compensate.

 

100% of his problem is that he wasn’t boxing at an early age.

Have you seen the Boone Kirkman fight?

 

AJ doesn't take a punch near as well as Ali and isn't near as good as a fighter.
