    Foreman pushing frazier back which is simply a universal fact, cripples fraziers offense so badly that frazier becomes a weaker fighter than ANY version of foreman no matterbhow much of a fraud you thought he was

    Foreman didn’t exactly march forward in his comeback. It looked more like underwater walking, which is totally different from what he was doing in the 70s.

    Old Foreman seems kinda slow for a younger Frazier to me.

    Yeah he did. In some fights he was JOGGING after his opponent.

    Regardless, as long as he moves forward Frazier because he has no lateral movement and is predictable. I already explained why Frazier is cooked as long as he keeps getting pushed back.
    Foreman will not take one step backward.


    It's just a stylistic nightmare
