Marvis Frazier vs Old George Foreman

Old George extends his record to 3-0 against the Frazier clan.

 

The moment Foreman lands an even have decent punch, this fight's over.

 

Witherspoon, Ferguson, Bey and Weaver never achieved the heights in boxing that Foreman did.

 

I think Marvis smartly boxes his way to a lead on the cards after five or six rounds … then George gets the timing and it’s nightie-night.

 

You talk like a man with a hole in his head. If you know anything about boxing then you would recognize when boxing IQ is in effect.

 

Like when Foreman plodded haplessly toward Tommy Morrison or gassed out against Jimmy Young?

 

That's not relevant to the statement you posed about ring IQ being intangible. Ring IQ is very tangible.

 

Ducking Tyson to fight Foreman is jumping out of the frying pan into the fire. Marvis has some success early but at some point gets caught by something big. I would be very surprised if he made it past the 7th. I think Stewart is the only guy Foreman didn't stop after knocking him down in the 90's and Stewart had the legs and power to keep Foreman from just bum rushing him.

 

He was, he just couldn't beat the top guys. Part of it was because his bodybuild wasn't made for heavyweight. He was 210 vs Tyson but looked like a soft 210. He likely would have done better at cruiser. He didn't do that bad at heavyweight.

 

Winning a few fights don't make you a fighter. Fighting wasn't his dream, it was his fathers. He didn't have that heart.

 

LOl Foreman kos him in under 2 rnds.

 

I think Holmes and Tyson deserve more credit for beating Marvis. I think Marvis was as good as anyone else around.

 

So did Evander

 

I wouldn't go that far but Marvis is a bit underrated for the 1 round blow outs.
