Proof that Foreman wanted Tyson

Hahahaha complete utter bull****, Grandad Foreman gave prime Tyson a harder fight than Tyson who was facing an old worn torn version of him, Foreman would destroy Tinkerbell in short order and little Mike would have never been the same.

 

All this doesn't mean that Foreman didn't want Tyson, Tyson's style was made for him and both George and Mike knew it. Pity a gay ******ed nuthugger like yourself can't accept it. :rofl

 

What's up? Your boyfriend Asser been begging you for help?? :rofl

 

Re: The Superfight That Never Happened: Tyson VS Foreman
Round 1

Tyson storms, running right at the larger opponent and throwing his right cross and left hook combinations. The cross-armed defense is proving effective from Foreman but he cannot counter while in this stance. Tyson is landing to the body but has been yet unable to land effectively to the head. Foreman pushes Tyson off to get some room and gets immediately warned by Steele, who receives a chorus of boos from the crowd. Tyson resumes but gets hit with an uppercut that got his attention. That is the bread and butter of Foreman?s attack in this bout and he just landed it.

With only thirty seconds left in the round, Mike Tyson has completely controlled the action, working the body and being more aggressive. With only 10 seconds left in the round, Tyson lands with a picture perfect left hook that jolts Big George, wobbling the former champ and sending him into defense mode completely. The bell rings to end the first round and Tyson lands a punch after the bell, creating another chorus of boos.

Tyson?s round: 10-9

Round 2


Mike storms out of his corner again and tries to see if Foreman is still in trouble. He attacks but Foreman is now throwing hard punches as a means of survival, focusing mostly on the uppercuts and jabs. The jab of Foreman is beginning to be effective as he pumps it out there into Tyson?s face. The head movement of Mike has been long since gone and it is hurting him badly. Foreman is coming up short with his right hand, looping the cross behind the head of his smaller opponent and not being able to catch him flush on the chin.

The pace of the fight is beginning to slow down with Foreman dictating the round with his jab and Iron Mike slightly confused. Tyson attempts to duck a jab and gets cracked with a left uppercut that stuns him and backs him into the ropes. Foreman attacks, throwing a right-left hook combo to the body, but Tyson fights back, landing two hooks of his own, both to George?s head.

Foreman is a man possessed as he lands another uppercut and Tyson?s knees buckle. The crowd is going crazy as Foreman scores with a series of uppercuts and body shots. This does not look good for Tyson as he is backing up and not on steady legs. The bell rings to save Tyson, giving Foreman a very big round.

Foreman?s round: 10-9, (19-19, even at this point)

Round 3

Foreman doesn?t take his eyes off Tyson as he stands in his corner, looking at the smaller man as he sits and takes a drink of water. He knows that Tyson is fragile mentally and he is now employing the psychology. He is getting in Mike?s head as we enter the third round.

Tyson charges at Foreman but not nearly as feverishly as he did in the prior two rounds. He is eating hard jab after hard jab, and his countering left hook is coming up short. Tyson was told to ?jab your way in,? by his corner, but he is getting discouraged, and is trying to knock out George with one shot. Foreman is completely in control, using his jab to keep Mike at bay and landing an occasional right cross. He is employing some of the tactics that Douglas had to defeat Mike and is setting him up for the uppercuts. Another big round for Foreman.

Foreman?s round: 10-9, (29-28, Foreman)

Round 4

Tyson comes out to the middle of the ring and throws a jab at Foreman and then falls into a clinch. He is confused. Foreman pushes him off and jabs him, and then jabs him again. George is throwing what seems to be strictly jabs at this point, and Tyson?s left eye is swelling. Foreman makes that a target and is bouncing his jab off of it. Tyson tries a left hook but is short with it and gets countered with a right uppercut and crashes to the canvas. The crowd erupts?everyone on their feet as Richard Steele points to the neutral corner. Foreman walks over and stands, staring at Tyson who is now on his knees, looking at the referee. ??5-6-7-8?are you OK?? Tyson nods, but only knows one way to fight: straight ahead. With ninety seconds remaining, he walks right back into the minefield.

Foreman is now in finish mode, and lands a jab and two uppercuts on the inside as Tyson holds. A third uppercut on the inside, wobbles Mike again, and a right cross sends him back down to the canvas. Tyson is up at the count of two and the bell rings to end the round.

Foreman?s round: 10-7, (39-35, Foreman)

Round 5

Mike Tyson is on rubbery legs as he stares across the ring at Foreman as round five is about to begin. Tyson goes for broke throwing left hook after left hook, and throwing some vicious body shots as well, but he doesn?t have the sting in his punches that he had in the first round that actually hurt Foreman. He is desperate and Foreman is picking his spots. He times Tyson again, landing another left uppercut that sends Tyson down and crashing into the ropes. Steele begins the count again, and Iron Mike barely beats the count. Don King is visibly nervous at ringside as his meal ticket is flying away. Foreman forges ahead and starts unloading, with a left hook placing Mike on the canvas again. Richard Steele waves his arms to signify that it is over.

Your winner by way of technical knockout at 1 minute 22 seconds of the fifth round, Big George Foreman!?

In boxing, styles make fights, and the style of Foreman will always beat a small aggressive fighter like a Joe Frazier or a Mike Tyson. With this victory, Foreman would face Evander Holyfield and lose a hard-fought unanimous decision, while Tyson would take some time off, regroup and defeat a bunch of average opponents before heading off to prison for what he may or may not have done.

In the end, this bout between two of the top heavyweights of all time would go down as one of the most memorable and most profitable. Both men got their shots in and both were stunned at one time or another, but it was the style and psychology that did Tyson in. With the head movement gone, he was a sitting duck for Foreman and although the ending surprised many, it shouldn?t have come as a shock at all. It was the most likely ending to this bout.

George Foreman and Mike Tyson both go down in history as top ten heavyweight greats and are two of my favorite fighters of all time. To see them in the ring together in 1990 would have been really special, but it wasn?t to be. Hopefully the next time that an event like this is rumored to be in the works, it actually happens. The world missed out on what could have been a great fight.


Nice little write up that I found, this guy is being very generous to Tyson because he wouldn't make it out of the 3rd round.

There are, and probably always will be, rumours among boxing folk that say Mike Tyson wanted no part of George Foreman. The two heavyweight greats fought their peak years in different eras, yet due to Foreman’s astonishing 1987 comeback, there was serious talk as early as 1988 that the two lethal punchers would one day meet in the ring. The fight would have been a huge money-spinner but it never happened. Why? Was Tyson, far more mentally fragile than fans, at the time of his reign of terror (and even beyond), could ever have guessed, scared of “animal” Foreman? Or was the fight lost for some other reason? Without getting into that – and what does it really matter why the fight never happened – I make my case for what WOULD have happened had the two legends collided, as talk of the fight peaked, in late 1990.



The fight is held at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas on December the 8th, and a sell-out crowd is in attendance. There is not a seat to be had, nor has there been one for some weeks. The fight caught fire with fights fans everywhere and as a result was box office gold. Many celebrities are sitting ringside also, as they too are burning with excitement-filled curiosity as to what will happen when the old slugger collides with the young banger.

George Foreman makes his entrance first. Wearing the same shorts he wore when he fought as world champion back in the early 1970’s, George is led through the arena by his handlers. Amongst these handlers is the legendary Archie Moore, a man who knows all about how to fight successfully as an old man. Also present is knowledgeable Foreman regular Charlie Shipes. The cheers are deafening as George squeezes his huge frame through the ropes and bounces across the canvas. Then Mike Tyson appears. Once more disdaining any unnecessary ring apparel – content instead with shorts, boots and gloves only, Mike is led in by his team. Though he has no-one as wise and experienced as either Archie or Charlie among his corner-men, Mike is confident in the abilities of his new trainer, Richie Giachetti. There are cheers as “Iron Mike” enters the ring, but a sprinkling of boos is also heard.

The great Chuck Hull does the intros as only he can and the stage is set. With the winner set to face the new heavyweight ruler Evander Holyfield, the most intriguing heavyweight clash in recent memory is also one that will decide which of the two men will see their hopes of fighting to regain their old title come to fruition.

Round one. The first bell is still an echo when Tyson comes thrashing out of his corner. He immediately opens up on George and cracks the old champ with a hard right. George instinctively holds and uses his massive strength to tie Tyson up. Referee Mills lane breaks the two huge punchers and Tyson looks to get back inside. Foreman, his timing upset by Mike’s incredible speed, cannot get his jab working and consequently has no weapon with which to keep his raging opponent at bay. Two wicked shots, a left hook and a right uppercut, crack Foreman’s jaw but amazingly he doesn’t go down. With the crowd making a deafening amount of noise, George again instinctively reaches out and grabs at Tyson, buying precious seconds while his head clears. Any doubts some may have had about the quality of George’s chin while boxing as a veteran have already proven to be completely unfounded. The question is, can he possibly carry on taking such punches?

With less than a minute to go in the round, after more hard work done by Lane in prying the two big guys apart, Foreman at last scores with a decent blow. A hard right hand to Mike’s midsection, that lands as Tyson advances, momentarily slows him down. But then Foreman is back on the receiving end as his young rival lets loose with a blinding combination. A whistling left hook upstairs just misses Foreman’s head, while two follow-up right hands connect. George, his chin tested more so than at any other time since the Ron Lyle fight, staggers badly and looks a dead-cert for the canvas. Instead, he stumbles into the ropes and remains upright to hear the bell. Already, it looks as though nothing but a bad beating lays in store for old George. Despite the lack of a knockdown, Tyson wins the round 10-8 on all three judges cards.

Between rounds George stands in his corner, as has been his habit during his comeback. Shipes tells him to get his jab pumping out and to time Tyson’s rushes. On the other side of the ring Tyson sits and snarls.

Round two. Foreman’s hands are noticeably higher now and he has a different look on his face. Fully aware of just how hard Tyson can hit him, “The Punching Preacher” now braces himself. Tyson works his way inside once more, yet curiously he doesn’t let go with the same fast punches he did in round one when he gets there. Not right away anyway. Not as physically strong as Foreman when it comes to the wrestling, Mike waits for the ref to part them and, as Mills does so, unloads with three viscous punches on the break. Before Lane can get in to admonish Tyson, however, George retaliates, almost blindly, with a monstrous right hand. Shockingly, Tyson is wobbled by the massive punch. The crowd is now screaming itself hoarse! How can Foreman be doing what he’s doing? He has taken Mike Tyson’s best punches, three of them mere seconds ago, and yet he’s come back to shake “Iron Mike.”

Now, for the first time, Tyson knows he’s got a fight on his hands. For some reason, the easy win that only a minute or so earlier had looked right on the cards for him, has vanished. Regrouping following the hurtful punch, it is now Mike’s turn to wear a thoughtful look. Tyson weaves his way inside and lands with two hard shots to Foreman’s body, as he does so, George shoves him off him and then blasts the smaller man’s head upwards with an uppercut somehow retrieved from the 1970’s. Tyson is rocked on his heels and George forces himself forwards to follow up. He misses with a sweeping left but catches a groggy Tyson with a thumping right to the temple. Tyson crashes to the floor! The scream can be heard all over Vegas and Lane rushes in and begins counting.

The count reaches five and Tyson climbs to his feet. George now advances and, with astonishing calmness, cranks out four slow but perfectly accurate sledgehammers to Mike’s head and jaw. The final punch, a right to the very point of the chin, sends Tyson to his knees. Again George is sent to a neutral corner and again he rests his arms along the top rope as he stands in a cross-legged stance while watching his opponent attempt to rise. This time though, he cannot – at least not in time. Tyson is counted out in the act of rising.

George Foreman, who tosses a wink at commentators Larry Merchant, Jim Lampley and his old trainer Gil Clancy, is the winner at two minutes and fifty-seconds of round number two.

Funny how Don King never mentions anything about Foreman not wanting to fight Tyson. Bob Arum was the one pushing for the fight not King.

**** me Asser I'm spanking your ass on a daily basis!

 

Delusions of grandeur??

Are you ****ing serious you inbred rodent? Don King never once mentioned Foreman didn't want the fight on that video. Bob Arum mentions Foreman wanted Tyson since the 80's, Don King said **** all!

I've handed your ass to you yet again, think it's time you leave this forum and go on Tysonnutthuggers.com :rofl:rofl

 

In the real world Foreman finishes Tyson early and in devastating fashion, shame a journeyman got to him first...

 

Asser where have you gone?? I'm sure you were in here but now you've gone all quiet??

 

Somebody please tell Asser to come in here, I want him to try and justify his bull**** thread where he spouted his usual bull**** that Tyson wanted Foreaman and big George didn't want to know, I've had to teach the boy a lesson yet again.
