Old Foreman was no joke... he fought a ton of bums when he first came back (something he readily admits to), but come on... to go the distance and give hell to guys like Holyfield and Morrison, to KTFO Moorer, to whip a young Shannon Briggs at 48... Big George was a freak of nature.
I'm an agnostic and I generally can't stand hearing religious people babble on about "god this" and "god that", but if ONE thing could make me believe in Jesus, it was Foreman's comeback run lol.
In hindsight, Foreman's win against Moorer was one of the worst things to happen to boxing, because it put the thought in every fat, washed up fighter's head that "hey, I think I have a comeback in me, look what Big George did", which lead to the death of many brain cells haha
He did get tooled by Jimmy Young though!
