Foreman & Hopkins in their 40s- whose run was more impressive?

[Spicoli]

Master u r correct. Not even disputable. Moorer had a china chin, Axel Schulz, Alex Stewart and Tommy Mortison were club fighters at best. Briggs is a joke. Evander was good but George lost clearly in that one. Cooney was a dinosaur, and Bert Cooper was too small and high on drugs.

Compare that to Pascal, Cloud, Beibut, Pavilik, Joe C, Tarver, Dawson n soon Stevenson. How many P4P ranked (at the time of the fight) is in that list? Multiple, n I forgot to mention Winky on that list as well. Really, Hop was already old at 36 when he destroyed Tito, but I wanted to limit it to guys he fought while over 40.

The one guy Georfe fought who was ranked p4p at the time they fought was Evander n he lost that one. George is an ATG heavyweight n a great man, but not anywhere near Hop in terms of accomplishment. Hop is a master at his craft. Too bad boxing fans today don't know enough about the sport to appreciate it.

Hopkins run has lasted longer and is more impressive.


However, Tommy Morrison was NOT a club fighter. He was a top contender and WBO champ.

Morrison proved legit in the short aftermath but had Hell with guys a top contender should not have in Williams and Hipp just prior. Arum saw a money fiesta that could not lose, and a chance for Tommy to take his ranking. Seems some always forget about the Stewart fight that left Foreman a mashed up mess, that was razor thin. I think Morrison studied that one..he boxed with a nice jab v Foreman. Kept a level smart head.
