Officially the only saddo who has had a girlfriend
i agree. and maybe those ropes ARE a bit rubbery there, hey? check it out. ever see ropes like that, EVER?
I'm sure George stated it never happened because he didn't want it to... not really sure what version of george said that... the real one or the PR one
Yeah Fat George was very... erm... 'Polite' when it came to talking about his previous opponents.
The crowd and the public had made Ali a golden boy just like the Flashing grin of Leonard. Duran and Foreman were the bad guys but Foreman was bad. He was angry but in his second career he evolved. Even though his favorite food was a Burger King burger, he did not get excited and his jab became more of a club. The laughed at him and he kept winning. If George developed this personality change back then his career would have been very different and talk about fear, who would enter the ring without pre-paid hospital insurance.
Just for the record I am and always was an Ali fan but the simple truth is that Foreman still needed a little more experience and he was huffing and puffing in his first career because not too many guys could avoid his punishing blows. All he needed to do was calm down and do more roadwork. He never saw more than a few late rounds but he was knocking everyone out and Ali revealed this flaw the first time. Imagine if Dundee was Foreman's trainer instead.
Foreman had mental scars after the fight with Ali. Also though to be fair Ali was on the slope from then on too so any second match would have been against a fading Ali and George wouldn't have gotten the recognition even if he had won IMO.
