Gil Clancy said he thought Foreman's jab was up there with Liston's, among the best ever in HW history.

Re: One of the most under-rated punches of all times.
George was never a fan of using the jab really was he?...Not sure why though...I guess it may have been that he has/had soooo much power that he just felt there was really no need to use it.....A shame really because if George did use his jab the way he should have I don't think he would have ever been beaten...The Rope a dope would have been just that...A dope laying on a rope (and no that is not an Ali insult).....George would not have tired himself out throwing bombs the way he did for 8 rds.......
Not that it matters none today especially since the man is an ATG without question and one of the most if not the most devestating punchers to ever grace the planet....

For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

Ain't that the truth mate....Hell I have nothing bad to say about George I am a big fan of his just if he was a bit morew refined when younger he would have been almost unbeatable...

Funnily enough when people put it to George that he may have been the hardest hitter eve he won't here it.
He insists Louis hit harder, as well as Liston and Shavers.

Re: One of the most under-rated punches of all times.
Foreman had a good jab, I'm not sure he consistently underused it, but his game plan in Zaire was pretty pitiful.
In fact, I'm convinced that his overemphasis on body shots when he commentates ("Holyfield jabbed Lewis in the chest, Lewis won't be able to breathe in a round or two!!!!!!!!") is a defense of his pathetic gameplan against Ali.
