George Foreman worked as a commentator on HBO when Moorer destroyed Alex Stewart in fantastic fight. On the broadcast there was a list of TOP-5 young undefeated contenders: Rid**** Bowe, Lennox Lewis, Ray Mercer, Tommy Morrison and Michael Moorer who just moved up to HW division Lampley, Merchant and Foreman were impressed by Moorer's performance. What's more interesting: Foreman said that Moorer is without a doubt a future champion of the world. Could he and anyone else imagine at that time that George Foreman would be the one who knocks Michael Moorer out few years later and take the belt?
Im pretty sure george knew from his chair it was time to take on the young guns if he wanted to carry on fighting after his holyfield title fight,whether as champ or contender. No one else could have imagined georges career going on to 98 and fighting young guns like stewart,moorer,morrison,briggs,and savarese
