What made George so scary was his power was deceiving. He looked like he was just putting a lazy jab or uppercut out there but that thing was a bomb waiting to explode on your face or ribs

[@bizmonkey007]

That’s what a real puncher is though. Even when he was younger he would practically compress heavy bags with ease, almost as if he was bored. It looks like he’s barely pivoting and yet he’s somehow generating a ton of power.

This is one of those records that I will believe it was broken when I see it.

Hard to see anyone doing this any time soon, if ever.

For a seek-and-destroy puncher? He had a truly impressive defence. Great parries, good head movement, terrific jab to destroy his opponent's rhytm -- and then you have his repertoire of old-school tricks like leverage blocks, stops, and pushing/holding. Kenny Norton fight is a great example: legendary boxer who got completely disarmed and destroyed. I still see George stopping Norton's left hook by putting his glove on Ken's elbow joint before it could land.

Forman is a smarter boxer than people realize he used a lot of old school basics and even some wrestling body pushing in his arsenal in the beginning of his career also when he came back he perfected the style in which he fights and learned to pace his self and pull his punches at times. Arguably underrated for his fighting technique and smarts in the ring.

According to a breakdown: Foreman wasnt actually punching with his full power so moorer would lose respect for him and get close.

[@cygnusprime6728]

That is correct. Foreman made the mistake of throwing his heaviest artillery from round 1 against Holyfield and Morrison and that scared them and made them fight cautiously. Nearly everyone in the division took notice and realized outboxing Foreman with lateral movement wasn't that hard. Moorer got cocky because Foreman didn't put a lot on his shots to give him a false sense of security. Once Moorer stopped moving around and tried to take Foreman out, it was like stepping on a land mine.

Foreman is undisputedly one of the greatest heavyweights of all time. Having lost his title to Ali, he came back 20 years later to win back the title from a man who was almost half his age. That's like seeing a 40 year old running back making a 100 yard sprint through a gauntlet of the best defensive lineup to make a touchdown in the closing seconds, helping his team win the NFL title by a single point.

What people forget is all Michael Moorer had to do was stay away, and not trade punches towards the end of that fight. Instead, Michael Moorer showed the heart of a champion. Moorer has the heart of a lion, but George has the heart, body, head, and fists of a Silver Back Gorilla that has been around the block a few times and then some. Foreman was a freak of nature, and an apex predator in a jungle full of dangerous animals. I will always love seeing the old lion that is long in the tooth school the younger lion that underestimated him/her. The lesson is to never mistake an older man's strength for weakness.
