1.28. Moorer didn't receive the Legendary Nights script in the post.

 

Well to Foremans defense, I would say he definitley knew his limitations. I dont believe him when he says he was setting Moorer up. What I believe was that he was determined to try and land the shot he knew would work, and that pretty much went for all his fights on the comeback trail.To stand in there for 10 rounds and take that kind of beating was impressive.
Mentally I think George thought to himself, Im going to get my ass kicked, but I got to keep trying to land something to win this title. That was the impressive part of Foremans comeback in my opinion, because if a fighter of George's stature at the time, entered the ring thinking he could dominate and beat up these younger guys, he could never get as far as he did, he would have quit in the ring long before the fight with Moorer.

 

Yeah but the fight with Moorer was one sided for the most part. The mental part of that kind of whooping is far worse than geting pasted in a competitive fight.

 

He was definitely starting to connect more, yes..

 

Funny stuff. I got into a nasty argument with another spectator during that fight... nasty, raw argument. That was no fun. On and on. He kept going on about Moorer, of course, but I kept telling him, "Look at the patience Foreman is showing! That will pay off! Just wait and see!" 'Not too hard to imagine how that whole thing developed, and then ended. I would take anything Moorer and Atlas now have to say about that fight, veterans that they are, with a grain of salt.

 

George landed two big left hooks near the midway point of the 10th round and then watch how Moorer never takes a step forward from that point on until George finishes him off. So he was hurt before the finishing blows. That was no lucky punch Foreman landed as Moorer would later claim.

 

Lol your crazy Mr Bill, good stuff!





This fight is good, Foreman with the one punch that wrote him into the history books, despite his 8 round face-beating Good for foreman bad for moorer?
Or bad for foreman good for moorer?

 

would of been great if george would have retired then and their...Schultz left a bad taste..but hey..at least the "loss" he went out on...to briggs...was more like a win.

 

What, no "Frankenstein vs. the Wolfman"?

Foreman was waiting... knowing he was gonna catch that guy. That's just how I saw it during the fight, and so I can still say it now. Let's recap: Foreman SPLIT-LIP Moorer 10. Moorer was foolish to think he could KO that Foreman. The guy was an oak tree. Anyway, it's a classic fight that I won't hardly watch except to see Moorer's heavy duty jabbing skills... or the SPLIT-LIP KO.
