Old Foreman wanted no parts of Lewis nor Bowe. He was actually very clear that he didn't want any parts of Bowe. He knew his limitations at that point.
Um Foreman called out Lennox Lewis after George knocked out Pierre Coetzer.Nice try kid. Foreman also wanted to fight Lewis before Foreman faced Briggs and would of fought him if he didn't get robbed. Also kid during that same Briggs vs Foreman fight Jim Lampley asked Lewis if Briggs won would Lewis want to fight him and he said he would love to fight Briggs. Lampley asked if Foreman won would Lewis fight him. Lewis only stated if the money was right. You need to try harder "kid" if you are going to try out knowledge me.

You lost me once you got to the old Foreman part. The 90s Foreman is not beating Lewis. And the very best version of Lewis IMO was the one who beat Golota. That Lewis is very much a live underdog against prime Foreman, as young Foreman was an available target and Lewis had the firepower to wack out anybody. I can't profess to be a fan of either one, so I have no dog in this race. But it's lunacy to suggest that Lewis has no chance against Foreman.
Foreman also called out Bowe. Foreman and Bowe had a verbal agreement and Bowe changed his mind and pulled out. Go to the 58:15 timestamp.
I see big George winning the first fight by KO and Lewis winning the second fight. Both top 5 ATG HWs to me.
Foreman said all manner of stuff in his second career. He said Lewis was the best heavyweight ever, for one thing, which should end this discussion. George just talked a load of old pony half the time. I wouldn't put too much truck in anything he said. I have often heard him say he wanted no part of Lewis or Bowe. In this instance, I'm inclined to believe him. If he had wanted them, it would have happened. He was the big name. He held the belts at one point. He could call the shots. And he chose Axel Schulz.
Lol George Foreman being nice and saying various people are good has nothing to do with him calling out Bowe and Lewis. Give me a link that shows Bowe and or Lewis calling Foreman out and him declining. Foreman also says now he wanted no part of Tyson. I heard Foreman say Jerry Quarry dominated him in sparring and he wanted no part of him. While Quarry has stated he sparred George a few rounds and got bullied around. I gave you links of Foreman calling Bowe and Lewis out. Also casual boxing fan if he wanted it to happen it would of happened? Bowe backed out of the fight. After Bowe backed out of the fight Foreman said forget Bowe and he would prefer to fight Lewis because Lewis didn't duck him yet. Guess what? Lennox Lewis never mentioned Foreman's name. Are you this clueless? You can't make somebody get in the ring with you if they didn't want too. Foreman chose Axel Schulz because Foreman thought it would be a easy fight and was still trying to fight Tyson.
You can make that argument against Holyfield, but not so effective against Douglas. I believe Tyson was still very much in his Physical prime. Granted he had made some poor life decisions when he stole Robin Givens from me, and some poor business decisions in his management and training teams. You can see a lack of focus in the Bruno fight, if we look close. But to say Tyson was not prime is a bit of revisionist history.
Lol Tyson was 23 years old kid. Wait give me the typical Tyson fanboy excuses about him being on drugs or not training hard. According to Tyson he trained hard for that fight but just lost. Also Holyfield was way more beat up than Tyson was. Holyfield was just knocked out by Bowe and people thought Tyson would hurt Holyfield.
He talks alot kid but when confronted by both fighters he ignored them and tried to laugh off the challenges.....now go back to fantasizing about big men touching you in places we don't talk about....Bowe confronted him on HBO after a fight and Foreman got skeert
Lol when did any of these fighters confront Foreman? He called them out. Bowe accepted and then backed out. Lennox Lewis never said he wanted to fight Foreman. Yeah you are clearly one of these people who looks for attention online. Go troll somebody else kid you get put on the blocked list now.
Well there is this invention called YouTube that probably has this video of s skeered Foreman afraid to look at Bowe and accept the challenge.....even disabled kids can use it kid
Foreman couldn't beat glass chin Tommy Morrison but Lewis stopped him Foreman couldn't beat up little Evander Holyfield but Bowe KO'd him No go dream about your big men with their big hands LOLOLOLOL
