People forget this... but George claimed he was drugged in Zaire

Yeah at this stage the whole drugged thing is just a chuckle really. It comes up every year or so.

 

Lysol Sanitizer.

 

Willie Reddish, Liston's trainer came back from the dead to try to fix Muhammad Ali but it backfired on George Foreman.

 

Up there with Deontay's excuse of his walk-out costume being too heavy.

 

I think it’s more likely that they were giving him PEDs than trying to take him out.

 

Love George but it's sour grapes imho. Up there w Duran saying SRL beat him bcuz he hadda sh!t.

 

I looked up water sanitation tablets and the modern ones advertise "no iodine taste", that could explain the medicinal flavor

I found an excerpt from Foreman's publicist that said "George hated Zaire and Kinshasa from the day he got there. They treated Ali like a god and George thought he was pretty badly looked after...Ali staying in a beautiful villa on the Congo river while we were stuck in a place that looked like an army jail."

if Foreman ended up with cholera he would have sh!t all over the ring, I also wonder if his corner was maybe a bit paranoid of someone trying to sabotage him from the "Ali bomaye" atmosphere

 

Well Foreman didn't complain he had a stomach ache.
Or his costume was too heavy,
Or Ali thumbed him,
Or he came into the fight dehydrated,
Too light,
Too heavy,
Etc
Etc
Etc.........

 

And I poop out 14K Gold Bricks twice a day. Ha Ha.

 

Well I have heard of the goose that laid the golden egg.........

 

That is also a good one. I don't buy excuses on any fighter, even my favorites.

 

So did George Foreman utter those famous words before Roberto Duran did, No Mas, No Mas?

 

I've heard of the goose that laid the brown egg and then got beat up by Ray Leonard.

 

Puro Pedo. Ha Ha.
