    The 1st knockdown looked like a right hook to the ear. The 2nd was a left cross, but can't tell if it landed on the ear area

    Lyle was 6’3 220lbs when he fought Foreman. That’s not and never has been “cruiserweight” size. Why make crap up?

    There is such things as nuances in boxing. It’s not all black and white like you seem to think why things occur. Lyle was a big puncher (certainly bigger than Joyce, Usyk, Larena) and Foreman had a new trainer, trying to find a new more circumspect fighting style in his first fight back after losing the world heavyweight title and was dealing with self confidence issues. Yeah he got dropped and badly hurt but he pulled himself off the floor roared back and gutted out a win when he was likely heavily concussed. Dubois folded like a deck chair vs Usyk and Joyce by comparison. The Lyle fight isn’t the black mark against Foreman that you think it is.

    You don’t think there are guys at 200lbs who weigh 220lbs? - basically the 2nd paragraph is a big nothing btw and you’re guilty of your own failure to see the “nuances” lol.

    That’s one way to discombobulate a guy, Curtis Shepard talked about it.

    Your entire posting on GF is a big nothing. Palooka level trolling at its most base. ****ing DDD having a more proven chin than George Foreman is close to the most ridiculous thing I’ve read on here and thats saying a lot.

    I’m actually wondering if anyone takes you seriously about anything on here. Your credibility is somewhere down near the level of DDD’s chin lol

    When Lennox Lewis was watching Dubois vs Usyk, do you think he was thinking "I could have also knocked Dubois out 25 years ago"
