I thought Foreman won, George was 48 in that fight, Briggs was like 20 years younger and George looked the better of the 2 when the fight was over, i thought George won..
Foreman. Awful decision. I was almost starting to buy into the Briggs hype at the time, but that fight convinced me that he was never going to be anything special.
Foreman, without doubt. I've been told from someone in Briggs camp that Briggs did not think he won either.
Yeah, and Briggs badly hurt Lewis in their fight. Briggs did get stopped but had well known breathing problems. Tua looked like a total fool against Lewis.
I watched a youtube video of questionable quality and came out with Briggs ahead by a point. I tried to rewatch a higher quality version at some point but turned it off because it was boring.
If you discount his windedness and prefer his quicker, flashier punches, it is possible to score for Briggs. He looked a lot better against Lewis for whatever reason.
Oddly, I watched the final 8 rounds of Foreman Morrison yesterday and found it a lot closer than I remembered. I was more impressed with George's pressure and hard shots than Tommy's stop and pop, running style. I may have to score that one again.
Foreman..Easily....The judges should have their eyes checked..But I guess there were some other issues, to why Foreman wasnt allowed to win.
