    No you’re factually wrong and it’s on film, I don’t care to explain it you anymore, you wouldn’t budge and you wouldn’t try to understand you’ve made up your mind it’d be like talking to a hen… there can be no critique of Foreman not even when he’s being punched in the face lol.

    You missed the part about Stewart being smaller and worse than Dubois and Joyce being bigger and more active than Foreman.

    He chose not to continue and got up right at ten.

    Well you said at length earlier in this thread Foreman was podgy in his second coming I think the exact words were " He was not 6ft4 more like 6 2-3 and he was fat AF - stronger then 70s Foreman absolutely… but stronger then Dubious? I’m skeptical looking at the two guys LOL - look at him in his comeback at 235lbs he looked soft still'

    I'd argue Tommy Morrison,Shannon Briggs and Alex Stewart who hovered between 225-240 lbs were not just his own size in muscle mass but rather more. Lou Savarese was a big man too. Gerry Cooney was a very strong man.....with respect your argument is rather undermined.

    Well, I obviously disagree and qualified my opinion. You’re simply saying he quit and that it just is.

    There have been many fighters who, when they ultimately arose via their best, genuine effort, barely beat the count, got up right on the count of 10 or barely missed beating the count.

    It happens and it doesn’t scream quit - and that appears to be the only thing you’re basing your quit claims on.

    Pot, kettle, black.

    Foreman had flaws like every fighter (more than lots who didn’t achieve anything near what he did) but you try and question his strength, chin, power and heart. For ****s sake he wouldn’t have overcome his technical flaws to get to where he did if he didn’t have all of that in spades.

    That’s why your constant nitpicking, slighting and disparaging of GF doesn’t tally with what he did in the ring or what anyone with two open eyes and mind can see. That’s not you.
