    Love the commentary with Ken Norton.

    Awesome Awesome fight.

    Can watch this again and again.

    Worth watching after the final count as an older foreman looks back at the fight.

    Can't argue with that. Foreman was a beast, he should have got another crack at Ali.

    Some great fights thats for sure. Ali Foreman 2 would have been massive. Did Ali want it? Did foreman call for it?
    Educate me!!!

    Foreman-Lyle is epic, the best staredown ever.

    Mercer vs Cooper is another great slugfest filled with insane action.

    ali wanted it to be his last fight, but foreman lost to jimmy young, and ali got a questionable win over young.

    Riddick Bowe vs Andrew Golota II..."A stupidly weight drained Riddick Bowe leaves it all in the ring".......Bowe lost something like 40lbs in 4/6 weeks, and knowing boxing and boxers he blatantly did it in a ******ed fashion......he was a walking Zombie and not stable from the get go in his fight.

    George Foreman was aware of this....

    No......sorry.

    If any slugfest can be boring, then Ike vs Tua achieved that.

    For excitement and drama it was a boring fight.

    Fair enough they threw a large amount of punches, but it was ****ing boring.

    All the fights up above are by far more exciting and have more drama.
