I dont think so... He still would have fought George somewere down the line...... To me George is perfect were he is now... He did something no one has done, and thats go back and rewrite history of sorts... He was able to comeback and reinvent himself and his image and win the heavyweight title in his 40's... He pushed fighters were signifigantly younger and in there prime to the brink... George made me real proudQuote:

But its pretty safe to say the Jimmy Young fight wouldnt have happened
Favourite Foreman quote ever,right after he regained the title
"George,I had you losing every round of that fight"
"Yeah thats how I saw it to,right up until I knocked him out"
