Right.
Foreman lost to top guys in the 70s, but after a 10 retirement and carrying 50 lbs of extra fat on his gut, and slow as molasses at 45 years old, he could still beat the best of the 90s.
At his peak, he got knocked out by Ali, but as a fat old man, he could go the distance with a prime peak Champ in Holyfield?
Foreman can't beat powder-puff punching Jimmy Young in the 70s, but as a fat, old man, he can stop the prime peak Champ, Michael Moorer?
...and now you're saying a fat, old, slow Foreman could have beat one of the current best, David Haye?
Maybe you fellas are right then about what you're saying: fighters today aren't as good as the fighters of yesteryear..
.
Moorer was winning that fight and tedy warned him of the right commin, moorer just didn't listen and got ktfo. Remember Moorer moved up from 175. Also in one of the first fights I remember watching on tv, Foreman fought shultz, and shultz being the unlucky dude that he was lost(can't remember if I thought robbery or not), and foreman instead of rematching him gave up the title Also while it's not a fight I personally have seen he lost to the "great" tony morrison. There were just a shit ton of people rooting for foreman, and certain people knew it would make them a shit ton of money, so they found a way to get foreman crowned the heavyweight champ. Not saying it wasn't spectacular to do what he did at 40+ but it's hardly like he was whooping everyone left and right.
re-read your OWN original post, it says INTERIM pretty damn clearly there
"According to the word coming out of Mexico, Marco Antonio Barrera's upcoming bout against Johnny Nolasco (17-4, 8KOs) will be for the vacant WBO interim-lightweight title.The ten round lightweight contest will take place in Guadalajara, Mexico on January 31."

i dont know if you will find this interesting
Exclusive Interview With The Legendary Angelo Dundee - “The Old George Foreman Would’ve Given Muhammad Ali A Tougher Fight Than The Young George”
ummm where have i claimed on here that it was a legit title? i said both Barrera and Morales have only been fighting for little trinkets that are even more garbage that the rest of the so called world titles, the only thing is you have it as being ok when Barrera did it, and now try to slam Morales for doing the same thing
both guys are fighting for fancy paperweights, only a Barrera fanboy would try to slam Morales for it and then go on to try to play up Barrera's "accomplishments" when he does the same exact thing
For fuucks sakes give it a rest. I come in here hoping for something about the fight or anything new on Morales and all i see is a couple of old woman swinging handbags at each other, still!!
Morales won the WBC Silver welterweight title, which is nothing more than another interim title/ paper weight, Barrera was gonna fight for the WBO INTERIM TITLE, it's exactly the same thing, are you honestly that dense? it doesn't matter what title either guy was fighting for cause their both pointless
So Morales fighting David Diaz for the WBC title meant nothing either? That was a legit title just as the Wbo world title is legit. Silver superdooper welterweigt title is not a legit title thats the difference. You clearly arent getting it so I feel like im wasting time explaing but then again you need to be educated.
Ross - Stay out of it. This has nothing to do with queers so be quiet.
