Yes, that's a diftemce between Bruno against McCall, and if Foreman faced him. Frank was absolutely shattered at the end, if this had been a 15 round fight, then McCall retains his title by Ko. But old Foreman would pace himself while rumbling on, slamming his jab in to Oliver's face. No way can I see George being tired out like Bruno.
George isn't going to be backing up giving McCall any confidence. Foreman would own the center of the ring.
McCall has nothing on old Foreman absolutely nothing. His lifestyle pretty much closes the age gap for me. I like George by TKO partly due to McCalls low work rate
Most fools here cannot separate young Foreman vs smoke in mirrors comeback Foreman........ In his entire comeback he avoided fighters with a pulse by all means necessary except light punching Holyfield who used him as a heavybag for 12 and a glass chinned feeble minded Light heavy who he again played the Heavybag until he landed the lucky punch in the 11th hour.... This is a guy who went life and death with cannon fodder Stewart/Saverese/Schulz and needed gift decisions against while a complete washed up Tyson waxed two of those fools in ONE round combined.....went 12 with cream puff Grimsley who D level Jimmy Thunder flattened in 10 seconds for the 100 count..... Could not pull the trigger on Tommy Chin or Bum of the month can crusher Briggs who never ever won a meaningful fight and never ever laid out a fighter of note except total no hopers. This is the same Foreman who rather got stripped of his belts then fighting ANYBODY worth a lick...... Foreman would never ever get near Mccall, belt or no belt............and as far as Bruno is concerned, Mccall at least fought him while Foreman was MIA against ANY threat plus Mccall's one shot stoppage of Lewis tops ANYTHING Foreman did in his entire comeback.
What a likable chap! Please refer to the recent Holyfield/Foreman scoring thread and watch that fight again.
George’s ko if Moorer—> ATG win, intelligently set the shot up rounds in advance so the scores didn’t count. McCall’s ko of Lewis—>lucky shot and Lewis was cocky/green…except McCall executed Steward’s gameplan very well and was trying to time Lewis with the right since round one.
I like George because the man knows how to fight and shows up ready to fight. No drama no bad habits no inconsistency just a great professional fighter. Your problem is you think no one can fight befor 2001 or whereabouts
George unifies the WBC and IBF titles. McCall was a journeyman who landed a lucky punch with his eyes closed. Foreman heavy jabs McCall to defeat like Bruno did. George was a month shy of 49, and he was outjabbing Shannon Briggs. Too bad they didn't fight. Would've been fun.
Lou Savarese, who was knocked out in seconds by Tyson, went 12 with Foreman. McCall was a chief sparring partner of Tyson because he was on a short list of men who could take that kind of punishment. If you think 90s Foreman is stopping McCall, who fought into his 50s without being knocked down, I do not know where the delusion begins but I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
+ McCall stopped Bruce Selden. Dont ever forget that. Foreman might have spit on Seldon and KOd him but its a feather in Oliver's cap. Took Bowe 1 round to do the same, took McCall what 10? 11 rounds? Easy game to play. Your still behind.
