    At first I voted toss up because I think foreman was in real existential crisis entering the young fight. But then I remembered that he still came very close to stopping young early in that fight and went back to foreman.

    George is going to remember what he did to Frazier in Kingston and fight accordingly.

    FOTC Frazier left his soul in the ring that night and would never be the same again. Conversely, Foreman lost his soul in the ring in Kinshasa , and took almost 10 yrs to find himself again.
    FOTC version of Frazier beat the version of Foreman Young faced.
    Foreman was in a mental health crisis after Ali in Kinshasa. His management tried to get him back on track with that insane five diffrent fighters in one night debacle that blew up in their faces and may have actually made the situation worse.
    By the time he faced Young he clearly was only a shadow of the destroyer that damn near killed Norton and Frazier.
    FOTC beats the hell out of the version that faced Jimmy Young. Probably stops him, or make him quit.... That's how far gone that version of Foreman was in my opinion.
    The fight game is 80-90 percent mental. If the mind isn't their.........
