    Beautiful video Rummy.George Foreman is indeed one of the most iconic
    fighters in boxing history.
    For pure natural physical strength and sheer heavyhanded punching power
    Big George is the No 1 man,with Sonny Liston being his only serious rival
    in these qualities.
    The damage Foreman could inflict with what looked like casual flicks was incredible.
    Heavy,heavy hands indeed.
    The only regret about Big George's career was his rather mediocre trainer
    Dick Sadler.Had Foreman been trained by a truly great trainer like Eddie Futch
    he might well have established himself as a top 3/4 all-time heavyweight champion.
    He's still in my all-time top 10 but really he could have achieved more in his first career.
    Still,the big man is an absolute legend.

    Forgot about the almost fight between super old George and Larry. Great vid as usual. Amazing career arc that will never be replicated

    Saw it moments after you dropped it. Superb. I will never tire of watching Foreman dispatch Cooney.
