"When you have to fight a guy has all those colors on like a tiger, that throws you off right there. Does something to your eye-sight."
Listen to 46:45 lmao. He gets so excited when he thinks Trinidad might do something "that's what he wants, Hopkins better be careful, *excited voice* THAT'S IT!" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvbJ8kgLW7Q Then Hopkins continues to batter Trinidad, you literally hear the discouragement in his voice "aww Hopkins beats him to the punch though" In the fourth round I believe, he said something along the lines of "Nobody can deal with Trinidad's power!" He loves that guy to death.
It's amazing how "young" Foreman seems if you think about that he fought Ali and Frazier it's unbelieveable
Yes, he is seriously like immune to becoming punch drunk or something. He has never had much of a defense, and even came back really old to become the oldest champ at the time, where he was taking ALOT of punishment being alot slower. Somehow, he sounds absolutely perfect in his articulation, not one bit of stutter or slur at all, you'd never even know he was a boxer if you weren't into the sport.
It's bad enough you make this terrible thread about one of the greatest of all time... what's worse? You do it on the man's BIRTHDAY?! Bad form, mother****er. Bad form. :nono
Holy **** I didn't realize til just now that Big George and Tito Trinidad share the same birthday... Which is today... Coincidence?
LOL "Best thing ive ever seen in boxing! george said that like he'd been a victim of holding and hitting... But surely not bieng BIG george?
Yeah but its because foreman was a young 20 something year old and ali and frazier were mid 30's. Like ali said "you grew up watching me fight kid"
