I just keep seeing the early Foreman as much more vulnerable to that speed combo than older version. A lot of mistakes for Tyson to exploit also.That almost sounds backwards but Foreman would fight likewise, heavy planted front foot and just have more vulnerabilities on instinct to match power. In either scenario..Foremans end game would be coming underneath... as Tyson would bob-weave and get that almost over exaggerated bend in the knees he had spots of. He'd over rely on the springing up and get a bit stiff. There is when Foreman forces his heels and takes the side to side step away for enough. Still think it more doable for relaxed geezer Foreman. Man I wish that would match came off then

My first reaction was based on Tyson being the better athlete with comparable overall resilience, just being able to be more effective for the majority of skirmishes and exchanges.

However, I hadn't considered the psychological element of the match-up, which kinda hints that Tyson would loose it.

George was not very stable too

Tyson was a very sensitive and emotional guy.

At times a complete train-wreck of a man.

The intimidation of Foreman would have gotten to him in some way. I'm not entirely sure how - but I'm sure it would upset him.
