It was due to actually happen.. Big George on the last legs of his second career, was due to face Hasim Rahman. It didn't happen, Foreman faced Shannon Briggs instead. If he d faced Rahman instead, could we have seen durable Foreman stopped for just the second time?
No way in hell Rahman stops Foreman. At the time of the Briggs fight, Foreman was so old and slow that Rahman MIGHT have squeaked out a decision.. The Foreman who fought Holyfield obliterates Rahman.
Rahman was rarely down on the cards in his prime and Foreman didn’t knock out any full sized heavyweights of his caliber after the 70s.
I guess you need to scratch Wlad's wins over Byrd (x2) then, whilst wondering why Vitali quit against such a fake heavyweight.
No , Foreman would have slunk Rahman into the ether. Rahman moved at a snails pace. . He was made to order for young and old 4Man.
Compared with who? Didn't he lose to a Light Heavyweight, by TKO? But, never as a "Natural 230 pound" guy.
You’ve got a long reach using a shot to dog**** Chris Byrd as an example of chinny. Old Foreman wasn’t beating good chinned, top ten 215 pounders like Byrd either lol
So, "chinny" compared with what then? Byrd was stopped in 4 of his 5 losses - once in a contest at 175. Neither was Rahman in '97.
