I Really Like Big George,really.
but i dont think he was in the same class as Tyson at his best.
Maybe I've been poisoned bythe calibre of guys Tyson blew out early on?
Trevor Berbick was a big strong and VERY talented guy. Tyson demolished him. Geoge was a big guy BACK THEN, now he'd just be average.actually he'd be smallish! 6'3 1/2 and about 220 in his prime.
He had poor defense and against Tyson thats the kiss of death. He wouldn't of held on liek a chicken like Bonecrusher Smith. he's have fought and been KO'd
Now that being said let me add. Foreman had freaky power. Big swinging haymakers that somehow knocked guys out!
Even the sort of clubbing punches that should be useless! they look so slow! but they land and the guy goes down! Good example is the Moorer punch. just sort of shortish straight,not real hard or fast, no big wind up or anything and all of a sudden Moorer is down ! and can't get up!! So maybe his deceptive KO punch comes through for himn and he catches Iron Mike.
would of been a good fight just cuz they were both real tough ass guys with a bad attitudes! Hard to imagine foreman like that when you see him nowadays!
