Some of those punches that forms throws in the last round, and mostly misses with, are just cannon blasts from mutliple angles. Here he had speed too. There's a ferocity there that is crazy powerful. I just can't see how he isn't the biggest puncher in the history of boxing. Just watch the last 45 seconds and then the slow mo replay. Just think what one of those shots would do to any human being. Insane bombs. This may be what Tyson saw and was terrified of.
DonKing was trying to make the fight. He was telling Tyson that Foreman represented huge money, plus he was old and slow and would be no problem. Tyson got up and screamed at King saying, 'I'm not fightin' that Fuckin' animal, if you love the motherfucker so much, you fight him!'
George didn't want to hut anyone and you could tell by the way he held back sometimes. It was a very noble fighting style he had. His punches looked so heavy and hard though. Punch for Punch,he hit harder than Lennox, Bowe,Briggs,Ruddock and Tyson.
@consta4891, answer me this if this story is true then why didn't a credible news source such as Sports Illustrated, ESPN, CNN, etc. cover this story? Sounds like a story that they would cover if they have credible evidence, doesn't it?
consta, read what I wrote more closely- "such as" means for example. "etc." and so forth. "a credible news source such as Sports Illustrated, ESPN, CNN, etc.", this means a news source that is has a reputation at stake (yahoo, google news, and many other news sources with reporting by professional journalists). Credible news source means a news source that has professional journalists who take an oath to report the news with verified facts.
I do not "know that tyson was scared of foreman" because I do not have credible evidence to suggest this. This news story was not reported by a professional journalist. I have no way of knowing whether your source is credible or not.
Consta, just because your prophet says something, it doesn't make it fact. For example Ali frequently says "I am the greatest" and even you will admit he isn't.
Your pretense at receiving emails from Foreman should be evidence enough.
Ali was a coward for not agreeing to a rematch with Foreman. And Foreman was a coward for refusing to fight the much harder punching Shavers.
Hello consta, you are a scared pussy for blocking me, you coward. Foreman is and always was a second rate fighter. Tommy Morrison badly outboxed Foreman. Tyson would destroy Foreman any day. If I ever come to Spain I'm looking for you, coward; you are no match for me, coward.
1. Tyson '86-'88 would destroy any boxer in history.
2. Prime or old Foreman would NOT be able to cleanly hit Tyson '86-'88. Tyson '86-'88 had much better head movement and defense than Frazier.
3. Tyson '86-'88 was a much better at dodging punches than Tommy Morrison. Tyson '86-'88 would easily defeat Foreman by decision. Foreman would hardly touch him.
5. Ron Lyle said "Shavers greater puncher than Foreman!" and so does Ali. Your "support punches theory" is not definitive.
@consta4891, ah but consta, none of those fighters fought Tyson and Larry Merchant hates Tyson so his opinion is biased. Teddy Atlas' opinion is biased as well, he hates Tyson too. People just don't realize how good Tyson '86-'88 was; partly because Tyson after Rooney is really a shell of a fighter. Tyson '86-'88 would beat Ali and Foreman because of his boxing skill; Foreman would not touch him (way too slow). Tyson would easily defeat Foreman by decision.
I've known Benton for many years, through him I met Duva, and was introduced to Goodman a couple weeks before Tyson fought Larry Holmes at the Convention Center in Atlantic City in January 1988.
While we were eating, Benton said, "Bobby, what's up with Foreman and Tyson, how come they're not fighting each other on the 16th? Isn't that the fight that King was trying to make?"
He said, " Georgie,You'll never believe this but, Fuckin' Tyson is scared shitless of Foreman and wants no part of him. I was there when Don was trying to make the fight. He was telling Tyson that Foreman represented huge money, plus he was old and slow and would be no problem. Tyson got up and screamed at King saying, 'I'm not fightin' that Fuckin' animal, if you love the motherfucker so much, you fight him!'"
Goodman stated that Tyson said Foreman was much better than people thought, and was a dangerous fight for any of the top heavyweights. Goodman proceeded to explain how Tyson was calling Foreman a big con man, and explained that the grandpop act was just a front. He said Tyson saw Foreman as trying to set up the boxing world into thinking he was a pushover, knowing that he really wasn't. Tyson said Foreman was a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Goodman continued to say that after seeing Tyson's response to King trying to push him into a fight with Foreman, he had no doubt that Tyson had fear of Foreman. He also said that from that point on, he felt that if Foreman and Tyson ever fought, Foreman would knock Tyson out!
Tyson and Cus D'Amato used towatch the Frazier-Foreman fight over and over."He continued saying that Tyson loved that fight because he was awed by Foreman's power and Frazier's toughness and how he kept getting up after every knockdown. He also said that Lott told King that Cus sat alongside Tyson saying,"It's suicide against Foreman if you're short and fight a swarming attacking style like Marciano or Frazier,"never figuring that Foreman could be a possible Tyson opponent down the road.
He said that Cus said the only fighters who had a chance against Foreman were, tall rangy fighters who could fight him from a distance while moving away from him, and no way any swarmer could beat Foreman by going to him.
I haven't a morsel of a doubt that Tyson just doesn't match up with Foreman, and he knows it. If Tyson was afraid of an old Foreman, think how petrified he would of been of a prime Foreman, the one who stared down both Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali in 1973 and 1974.
@consta4891, honestly consta, if this were true why was this story not covered by a credible news source such as Sports Illustrated, ESPN, BBC, etc. This would be a big story for them and it is very hard for any one to reasonably believe that this story is true considering that no credible news source covered this story.
your girl friend tyson 86-88 never won nobody, only bums, ONLY BUMS.HE NEVER WAS TESTED WITH A PRIME LEGEND.
I HAVE 50 FRIENDS AND MANY FANS OF TYSON, AND THEY RECOGNIZE ANY GEORGE FOREMAN PROBABLY WOULD WIN TYSON BY KO, JOE FRAZIER HAD BETTER CHIN THAN TYSON,100 TIMES BETTER HEART, TWICE MORE STAMINA.
MIKE TYSON HAD A VERY EASY STYLE FOR GEORGE FOREMAN.
@consta4891, Tyson '86-'88 had much better head movement than Frazier. As you can see from the Foreman v. Frazier fight, Frazier tries to fight Foreman toe to toe without any head movement and with poor defense (sorry but it's true). Tyson '86-'88 would defeat prime or old Foreman because he wouldn't get hit with any big punches and he would outbox Foreman; Foreman didn't have the speed to catch Tyson 86-88.
@consta4891, oh and Shavers punches harder than Foreman, you idiot, Ali your god even said Shavers punches the hardest. Tyson would own all of your heroes. Consta you know shit about boxing, kid. Foreman is shit, shit, shit.
By absorbing a ridiculous amount of paint until the big guy exhausted himself. Ali did his best to avoid a rematching and as a boxing fan I'm disappointed, of course, but can hardly blame him. Even in his 40's Foreman was an amazing fighter.
