    Could of had a few warm ups post Tyson and then with Mike getting beat a few years later who knows what might of happened ?? Big money fight with foreman ?? Not sure George would go for that ! Lots of big money on the table

    That's not true. A lot of people predicted Spinks to win that fight, including Muhammad Ali.

    Basically this.

    Ha! Do you actually believe that Foreman feared fighting Michael Spinks?

    I wrote not as dramatically. Probably should've added not as early.
    But..... In my opinion he'd still would've been koed by the best of that era...

    I think Spinks boxing and ring brain would of given Foreman problems. Would the big man what that ? I doubt it
