I met him at a basketball game in Burnett, Tx. We were sitting on the other side of the gym and my student recognized him. He was just sitting by himself, wearing a hat and watching one of his sons play. We went over and just wanted a picture. We ended up sitting with him for the entire second half, had some cokes and hotdogs. Extremely nice man. Never once mentioned boxing. He talked to us about his family. Showed us pictures of his horses and grandkids and gave my student some advice. Even though she was a tennis player. Extremely nice man

Nothing left to say.. When a Monster calls Another Monster a “Absolute Monster”.. Believe it!!!!!!! Salute Big George Foreman!!!

[@eLasVegas]

Apparently, you must be broke. Foreman is trying to hype his cheap products. Tyson could not get past Holyfield in prime. He lost his biggest fight after becoming champion. There is no comparable Liston that Tyson has beaten.

[@30over3]

@Tyson MMA Exactly. Or casuals who weren't even alive to witness Mike Tyson fights in the 80's and even pre-prison. Dude was a phenom. THAT Tyson doesn't lose to Holyfield.

It's so cool that here's a legend that fought in two of the greatest HW eras and against Ali, Frazier, Lyle, Holyfield, Moorer, Cooney, and Morrison, to name a few. And he's sharp as a tack and a great communicator. Walking boxing history book right there

[@alvalankerofficial]

Prime Mike Tyson beats any heavyweight in history except maybe Ali.

[@jeremytucker8853]

@@alvalankerofficial Yea maybe but I don't think Ali would've been able to stand that kind of snap quick instinctive speed and power. He would've got caught at some point. If not then I think Mike would've won by decision.

[@jeremytucker8853]

Yea but he'd have to open up and fight along the way. Tyson in his prime had a few fights that went the distance. He was successful in all of them. He never lost a decision. I do agree that Ali would've tried using that as a potential weakness of Mike, but I think he would've been highly disappointed in the end. Tyson throws bombs 1-12 rounds, but if he had a shot that would probably be it.

Foreman knocking out Moorer after taking a beating most of the fight was one of the great moments in sports history. Foreman's response afterward,going to his knees and praying, made it even better.

[@vanjones1749]

True

[@donsolo4845]

You do know that was apart of gameplan? He purposely "took a beating" until the later rounds to conserve energy. He didn't respect Moorers power. It was a bait and switch tactic.

You have to remember, Foreman’s comeback was a joke and a freak show attraction until that very moment. Now we look at his comeback as proof that a comeback at that age is possible.
