George Foreman(1991) vs. Razor Ruddock(1991)

LOTS OF FIGHTERS DUCKED RUDDOCK......douglas also....ray anis stepped aside.....also......

 

**** on his face ? Are you inferring that George's grill gave him loose bowels ?

 

The 1991 Foreman,although not the monster of his prime,would still have been good enough to beat Ruddock,imo. Donovan would burn himself out early trying to stop George,and would gas out later on. A battered,but still standing,Foreman would stop him anytime between rounds 9 - 12.

 

He started this thread over 3 years ago, you numb nutts...

 

Ruddock survives an early knockdown or two, only to beat Foreman ugly...I mean he would just brutalize him with powershots at will for the rest of the fight. However, with both eyes swollen shut Foreman will have his arms raised in victory via a controversial decision. Either that or Richard Steel calls the fight when Ruddock slips into the ropes.

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl Tyson got a GIFT TKO.

 

Ruddock became a decent counterpuncher. He would give Foreman a lot of problems with movement and his jab uppercut and hook would do a number on George. Ruddock 12rd decision or late stoppage

 

I imagine that Ruddock would basically get to the punch quicker than Foreman on most occasions, and that he'd win a close fight on points. I don't see him stopping Foreman, and '91 Foreman was probably an underrated boxer.

 

Chaps,


Ruddock at 1991 would beat nearly any heavyweight of the same era, except Tyson who was still too dangerious.

I think Ruddock (considering his relative speed and punching power) would respect George too much and it would go to a decision. No wild knock outs or TKOs here in my opinion.

So you'd pick him to beat Holyfield and Lewis ( who was only 1 year away from beating him in 2 rounds? )

 

Before the punishment he took from the Tyson fights, I think Ruddock would prove to be very awkward fight for Holyfield, and would have beaten a less experienced Lennox (in the same way how Mccall/Rahman did)

 

Exactly right! All those you mentioned found excuses to avoid Ruddock. Who knows what would have happened in Edmonton had Tyson defended against Ruddock and not pulled out with chest problems. We all know what happened in Tokyo a few months later via Buster Douglas.

As for the Morrison fight, Ruddock had to quit on his stool because of asthma complications and he was under the knife for a vasectomy reversal. A fresher, focused Ruddock would have dispatched Tommy earlier.

 

atsch

Ruddock lost to Lewis so easily because he couldn't clinch his way out of early trouble like he did against Tyson. Mike also knocked Razor around early but got tied up when he tried to finish him. Of larger stature, Lewis just pushed Razor off when he tried to hold and uppercuted him to death. End of story. There was glaring physical and stylistic differences that produced such vastly different results...but its easier to just say Mike ruined him.

Post-Tyson, Ruddock had no problems blowing out a top 10 contender in undefeated Phil Jackson in one of his better wins. Sorry but its sad to see Mike Tyson getting credit for one of Lennox's best early wins.

 

:thumbsupXpert-tastic Post m8.
Ruddock looked at his v.BEST in teh fight after Tyson.

Ruddock was 100% Peak VS Lennox.
Tyson-fangirls use DUMB-DUMB B$ excuse saying Tyson "damaged" him :rofl - BUT it was only a little bit of Swelling on his face so i dont see teh big deal. Ruddock clinched teh little weak tyson LOADS every round to survive, But even young beanpole Lennox is way, way stronger And heavier then Tyson so Ruddock Couldnt clinch. Lennox hit way, way harder then Tyson And teh Ruddock-Fight proofed it. Lennox was teh MAN who Ruined-Ruddock in 2 roundz with his MEGA-Haymakers And v.overated Tyson went life-or-death slugging haymakers with Ruddock for 19 roundz!! deal

Foreman Hoooooooooook! :hat

 

:rofl Jackson was a monster

Lewis Ruddock resembled nothing to Tyson Ruddock, and it wasnt because of any clinching.
