    Shot to bits Gerry Cooney was catching Foreman with hooks.

    Yea you really told me off.
    "Prime Ruddock"? how many titles did he win? Morrison ran from Foreman but knocked Ruddock out. Oh yea Ruddock wasnt " relevant anymore" why do you think that is dingbat? He sucked. He didnt have the basics down. Who did Ruddock ever beat that was 1st rate or at least prime? Yet you have the audacity to laugh at Foreman's comp. There was something out there called the Heavyweight Championship. They dont give it to you, you have to fight for it. That's why Razor never got it.
    It gets old. Everything based in propping the faded Tyson '91 up.

    Cooney would only need 1 of those hooks with Ruddock. That's ofcourse when Dave Jaco is done whipping that ass.

    Honesty at its finest :lol:

    A Cooney three years before more booze got KOd by the punch resistant Michael Spinks. Guess he needed one hook at that time too.
    Jaco "whipped that ass", admitting himself that ass punched him like a mule kick, before beeing unable to answer for the next round in an case of asthma.

    Foremans level to overcome was Stewart, Morrison and Moorer. Thats where things got shakey. I guess a Ruddock isn´t that level...oh right...

    Old Foreman "peaked" in 90-91. His strengths minimized the decline after that but he was not the same fighter he was vs Cooney, Rodriguez and Holyfield

    Many fighters ducked Donovan why if he sucked so bad ? Witherspoon. Said no - foreman said no - ray anis said no - bowe ran from ruddock 2 times too fight Phil brown on USA network !!! Was ruddock technically great ? No but he can catch u and put u out .... but ruddock was so shot and inactive by the time he fought Morrison that u can’t possibly call 1995 ruddocks prime

    Ruddock passed his prime in one year?That is laughable!No one run from Ruddock who was sucker and was beaten by bums!When Morrison fought Ruddock he had HIV and so what?You pull excuses because you are another Tyson fan and you know that before Tyson some bum beat Ruddock and you can not use that argument washed and innactive after Tyson fight!Beofre Tyson some bu beaten him but Tyson could not and Morrison who had HIV beat him!
    No one ducked Ruddock because he was a joke and he could not knock China chinned Morrison!Ruddock was never in top 10 fighters!

    And about Ruddock...he was knocked by almost everyone!Morrison,Tillis,Lewis..
    Ruddock is the most overrated guy in history. He built his name with 2 loses with tyson. He got destroyed by any prime puncher that he fought like morrison and lewis( i know i know the excuse will be that he was in his peak in 1991 and then he was shot in 1992. Laughable).
    Until 1984 he weighed under 200 pounds even in the 180s . he not just lost to a bum like david jaco but he could not stop him in 8 rounds .
    He won a ****PY SD AGAINST A 35 YEARS OLD WEAVER.
    All he did was beating A SHOT MICHAEL DOKES( IN HIS PRIME WAS NOT A GREAT THING).
    And Beating a fat 36 years old James smith Who was very very close to knock
    Him the **** out. A prime smith destroys him no question about it.
    Ruddock was nothing special. He is built up by Tyson fans to make it seem like Tyson beat somebody good in his prime. That being said he fought all heavyweights and I mean true heavyweights
    He could not even KO china chinned Morrison but Tyson fans live in delusion that he would knock Iron chinned Foreman!
    Rudccok as I said was knocked by light pucnhing 40 years old Tillis, and he could not beat Morrison!
    Imagine Foreman catching Ruddock!
    It would be just like Foreman Cooney fight!

    Foreman - Although, I think Ruddock looks threatening for several minutes before the Foreman Right-Hand lands.

    Ruddock was powerful but he had a weak chin. He was knocked out by Tyson, Lewis and Morrison. All Foreman's versions would have knock him out. Also Holy's, Bowe's and Mercer's versions imo.

    Some boxing fans just want to jump on the back of a horse being steered by a shirtless Foreman in a cowboy hat.
