    I remember thinking that it was crazy that Foreman chose Lyle for his comeback.

    I don't think it would go down that way today.

    The finish was insane.

    The punches didn't even look all that powerful, but George rocked Lyles world with them. Ridiculously heavy hands.

    I remember George saying that Lyle had him about out and then Lyle hit him again and it woke him up and he kept going. a hell of a classic fight.
