George Foreman from the 90s vs. Zhang Zhilei.

Foreman wanted nothing to do with Don King. I get it, he hired Arum as his promoter to negotiate with King to promote it together. I know for a fact Foreman was a future opponent for Tyson when Cayton came up with the Tyson World Tour in 1988.

I guess I should ask if you're a follower of the "Tyson ducked Foreman" circuit?

 

No, that's to complete the set. I showed you the pillows earlier.

 

I was thinking of 70s Foreman. Prime Wlad failed to get Wach out of there. If Foreman failed to stop him, he might gas out get heat stroke or whatever it is the kids are saying these days.

Wach in his prime beat Teper and Hammer and only lost to Povetkin and Wlad. He was on the level of Stewart or Savarese, but was really hard to take out,

 

Your infatuation with George Foreman runs very deep. No-one else even knew these existed

 

Just trying to help my pals out.

 

That got a chuckle out of me not gonna lie

 

I see Briggs as journeyman gatekeeper level. I think it's a massive stretch to say success against him in any way gives us an idea as to how Foreman would do against the Klitschko brothers.

Zhang is largely unproven but appropriately 35 pounds heavier than the Briggs Foreman fought at say 265 vs 227

 

For ****s sake don't encourage him

 

I actually commented on that in the very post you quoted.

 

Yeah but are you being honest? And if you are being honest, did you ever think Tyson ducked Foreman...both times?

 

Strange that Foreman struggled against supposedly inferior competition to Briggs in Schulz, Grimsley and Savarese. I was a big fan of Briggs until he got exposed against Darroll Wilson. Or at least his asthma got exposed because after that he was punch shy in every significant fight.

 

Honest????????? Perhaps, perhaps not. Neither you nor i know the inner workings enough to know beyond any semblance of doubt i would say. I've seen some good oil that he did and some good oil that he didn't. It's not something i would ever lose any sleep over let it be said. I have no doubt at all Foreman wanted to fight him. That's obvious.

 

Did you ever, Mr. JT, at any part of your life, think Tyson ducked Foreman? Now testify young yeoman!!
