Foreman was the scariest Heavyweight Boxer of all time and people forget, he was also Sonny Liston’s sparring partner. Tyson is definitely up there but Foreman was just a monster, especially after he hit you. If you look at Ali after the first round, he had to change his strategy because Foreman attacked his strength and nobody thought anyone would survive attacking Foreman’s. That was the fight that everyone in his corner said that Ali was never the same in spite of the 3 year layoff.

[@michaelballard3413]

I have to disagree. Foreman was 6"5 and weighed 240 and he was a terrifying boxer to face and he did fight better competition BUT Mike Tyson was 5"11 and weighed 205 and was knocking out dudes foreman size. If you look at the fighters Tyson faced they were all taller and in some cases outweighs him by 20 pounds or more ( exp: bone crushed smith ). So that is more terrifying to me when a small man can knockout giants. You expect a big man to knockout other big men. Tyson was scarier by far!

My pick'd be Liston, he has a devastating punch with a very impressive reach and not to mention he had an association with the mafia . He almost never smiled on public and he knocked out ultimate good guy Floyd Patterson and not to mention that the president of the USA told Floyd to not go against the guy. Gotta respect Floyd for accepting his challenge and Ali for not being afraid of him.

I remember watching the pre-fight coverage before Foreman-Ali and Howard Cosell, who was a great friend of Ali, was expressing extreme concern that Muhammad is in way over his head and couldn't beat George Foreman at that point in his career. Ali was 32 years old, which back in those days was really retirement age for a fighter. Ali beating undefeated 25 year old George Foreman after he had just nearly killed Joe Frazier was, as far as I'm concerned, the greatest performance in boxing history.

Foreman was a straight up monster in the early to mid 70s. Today we think of the Foreman grill and this guy that loves cheeseburgers. In the 1970s he was a shredded mass of muscle that had power unlike anything before him. I’m happy he’s transitioned to what he is but when he won the title in his 40s you could still tell underneath that smile the determination of 70s Foreman was still present. I respect that.

Sonny Liston was arrested over 100 times, fought over 1500 men in America's Arizona State Prison (1950's Guantanamo Bay) prison, yelled at the prison guards to bring inmates as sacrifices for his sparring sessions which ended up in prisoners either going to the morgue, paralyzed, or severely injured and often ordered 2-3 men at a time to go in the ring with him just for a light sparring session. The Prison guards started holding boxing matches for entertainment and betting who the winner was, it was estimated that Liston participated in at least 300 of them.

[@not677]

Look at Foremans knockout of Gerry Cooney knockouts like that answer the question Tyson through rocks at high velocity and Foreman smashed peoples heads with boulders Foreman also arguably has the greatest chin ever the shots he took at times where just brutal and it's insane that he didn't go out Holyfield landed something like an 18punch combination on Foreman and only managed to stun him the man was a human grizzly bear
