Tommy left hook could nick out average fighter with ease but Forman was a very tuff man. Great fight. Tommy boxed wonderfully . He should fought ray mercer the same way instead of trade

Foreman needs to have his chin sampled and analysed in a military lab. They need to reproduce the material and use it to armour every vehicle in the defence forces.
And that's how they can made modern day Captain America :D
George had one gear....forward! Never saw him backing up
Hahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahaahhaa
@@robertboynton7624 George said that the only man who ever forced him to back up in the ring was Sonny Liston, with whom he sparred very early in his career. Makes sense. Can you imagine Liston vs Foreman?
@@studentofsweetscience6922 Lewis was 15 years younger. Both in their prime, George would have crushed Lewis.
Even at his age Foreman never stops advancing. For all the shots he took over decades of boxing he appears mentally unscathed. Just an extraordinary boxer.
He's the greatest and George Foreman is a great Christian man
Blacks are known to have thicker skulls, so it's extra armour for taking shots to the head.
@@wildestcowboy2668 his transformation from a hateful spiteful man after his loss to Ali to a kindhearted gentle giant is very impressive. According to him and people close to him he had a religious awakening after a subsequent loss to a different opponent.
FIGHTER. He was never much of a boxer. That's how Ali beat him. Physical force alone was not the way. Morrison would definitely have lost if not for the age difference.
But you're right. Morrison had an impressive punch, and Foreman never seems fazed by it. Then again Morrison was never in trouble either. If he'd had better training, he might have been a legit great.
@@christopherlyons5900 People close to morrison say this is the fight he trained hardest for. He struggled after this to keep in condition and lost to a second rate fighter afterwards.
The fact that Foreman never got knocked down in his second career is more amazing than winning the belt at 46.
Look at how thick he is. Tough to knock down.
@@Douglas83123 facts his size plus his chin was like fuccing tank armor😂
Yep ..... Ali, Ron Lyle, and Jimmy Young the only 3 humans to ever knock George down .... amazing
@@groofootnot jimmy tho, that was a slipped
lol ... ruled a knockdown, though ... @@aimanhakim771 ... heh he
Tommy Morrison was no joke. He was widely derided as an overrated "great white hope" but he was a legitimate, elite heavyweight in his prime. For Foreman, at 44, to take some of Tommy's powerful blows and just keep advancing like that? And to go the distance, no less? Truly amazing. Great slugfest here no matter how you look at it; massive respect to both of them.
I agree if Tommy would have left the party life hed probably still be alive and would have definitely had a longer more rewarded career.
@@mainstmechanical7932
Morrison vs Tua would of been interesting
Morrison was never elite. And this was probably his best performance.
@@heldinahtmlhell If your definition of "elite" is something insane like Top 5 or even Top 10, then no. If it's a more reasonable criterion like Top 20 or so, then yes, he was absolutely among the elite for a brief period.
Well said
Foreman was 44 years old. Walked straight through everything Morrison had to offer. Unreal.
Thank you the man was old
Foreman was a big behemoth that withstood the punishments. I wonder what the comparative weighing was.
Tyson wanted none of Big George, guess you know why now
George said tommy hit harder than a mule
Roids.
Imagine hitting a man with all your strength, and he just keeps coming and coming and coming.
@@studentofsweetscience6922 That was their problem 😆😆. By all accounts everyone at the time said George was too old and chubby. And nobody took him seriously at first . George was tougher than people thought . George Foreman 💯✌️.
Apollo Creed could tell you about that. He hit Rocky Balboa like no man has ever been hit, and the man kept coming after him!
@@studentofsweetscience6922 it was even worse in the 70s .... and he was only 225
@@studentofsweetscience6922 how old are you..... just asking
Its a Nightmare
Easily to me Morrison's best fight.. and Foreman still showed hes a beast even at his age.. This is classic fight that goes underappreciated.
Foreman was walking through those power shots like it was nothing..his head barely moved when hit by one..he had bricks for hands and a chin of steel some of the best combos to have as a boxer..can hit hard and take a hard hit.. Foreman was a monster i love his fights..
Foreman, amazing toughness. Not one backward step. Not even out of breath. The most feared boxer of his time. We can all see why.
He tried to head butt Morrison towards the end of the first round.
Go roids go!
All that and he always came into the ring with a smile:-)
Foreman was a Christian and believed Jesus was with him so he couldn't lose!
@@healthyone100 And he found out he was wrong. He then became a born again Atheist.
Love how foreman stays calm. What an elite boxer.
Morrison 😰
He sucked
Foreman is a real iron man
Low blow champ
One of my favorite boxers he wasnt just raw power he had really good technique for setting up his shots. I remember him knocking out a guy with a walking uppercut that was just beautiful.
Even though big George was very slow, he was relentless and all his punches were bombs. It was so much fun to watch him fight.
Absolutely and he never took a step backwards. Even Tommy ran from George a few times.
George Foreman is nothing short of amazing. At his age against a young strong opponent going so deep into the fight. He was already selling grills on tv by this point.
Superhuman!
Lol. Beyond Superhuman!!
The grills came later about a year later
Side note Hulk Hogan was offered the grill job before foreman and said no
And did they grill soy burger?
No, they were real men back then!!💪🏼
2 of my favorite fighters. The guts it takes to stand in there against Foreman's jab, and Morrison's left hook is incredibly courageous.
Only old boxer n daring foreman n tomy my handsome boxer al time great
It’s amazing how calm foreman remains after massive blows to the face
@@TylerSmith-yx9xk that was the same thing going through my mind......morrison was slamming foreman in the head and it was like it didnt faze him
86⁰
I mean he constantly ran the whole fight
Some of the hits Foreman took would have destroyed a normal fighter. It's unbelievable that he had the type of career he had with out appearing punch drunk in his later years. He fought some of the hardest hitters in the heavy weight division when they were in their prime and he was beyond his. Just amazing looking back at it.
In a few of those punches you can see the sweat spray from Foreman's head he was hit so hard, but the man kept going!
George is the man he's in his 70s still speaks normal....great fighter great guy
He shrugged off multiple shots like the one that flattened Ruddock.
... and still walk around like he didn't take brain damage. Foreman is sharp as ever
I love what ali said about foreman. He said something along the lines of forman was to slow to hit him. Walking around like Frankenstein lmao
RIP Tommy, you had one of the best fights in history against a living legend. George, even at the age of 44, was terrifying for any opponent.
I agree. We all see Morrisons life as a true tragedy. Here morrison still seems in good physical shape. Perhaps, perhaps you might say he was missing the instinct to win. But a good entertainment with a lot of rounds for the fans.
Yes, Rest In Peace Tommy Morrison. He lived such a troubled life outside the Ring
Was Tommy on steroids?
@@antoniofba667 yes.
George Foreman was a Monster,at that Time😳
Tommy is no longer with us but he left us some of the best highlights I've ever seen in boxing. I don't care about his personal life, he was a brave warrior inside the ring. RIP
Tommy gave him a hard time
brave and… boy it would have been disturbing to have fought him and have to go get checked..
@@NoName-gz2kk Bad stoppage. But Tommy still far better than Mercer
@@NoName-gz2kk The highlights of Ray Mercer getting destroyed by Wladimir Klitschko are even better.
George Foreman was tougher than what a majority of folks thought , especially when he did his comeback into boxing . The media and even some boxers said he was too old and fat . I don’t think they took him seriously. But when that bell rang and it was time to go to work , George showed the opponents and those who doubted him . George is definitely one of the best 💯✌️
He would always have a puncher's chance simply because of the thunder in his hands.
No one did until he went 12 with Evander then he hit his respect
I don't think anyone underestimated how tough he was I think they underestimated how smart he was.
What would’ve happened though if Foreman was competent in losing his weight and became more agile?
@@housesports000 ... like when he was the Champ ... he was even more formidable in those days!
Foreman was so strong, Morrison was a very hard hitter, Foreman is one of the tuffest of all times
Toughest 🙂
Buffest
@@historyouuu3495 That too😛
@@splinterbyrd tufferest
And earni shavers
Foreman had insane stamina. Even though he took several punches he continued to advance as if nothing had happened.
Foreman is Goro from Mortal Kombat.
Super stamina and Tungsten skull but poor defense.
@@jcgrx2251 Yes.
Stamina⁉️ That is the only thing he did not have
@@psychology-professionallys3315 Clearly Foreman did have stamina, in all these comeback fights in the 80s and 90s he is fighting in every round, despite taking a lot of shots. In this fight, just as against Holyfield (who hit him with everything he had), Foreman was still punching and landing in the 12th.
Morrison was a punishing puncher. Foreman is the only fighter to take his punches and still move forward. AMAZING
I agree, Tyson was afraid to fight Foreman.
I remember watching this live and being blown away by Foreman's iron chin. No one, and I mean no one could take those blows by Morrison but Foreman somehow did, he's superhuman. Great editing on this fight too BTW.
He believed Jesus was giving him his power!
Joe Joyce
Probably the best night of Tommy Morrisons career. A real shame Tommy never lived up to his potential. R.I.P. Champ!
Lacked focus
Aids
@@Robert-xk9no He got aids from his lifestyle of partying and women.
That was also why he never did as well as he could have before he got aids.
He got pounded in the butt by the gays!
@@Robert-xk9no I think I saw in a documentary, that he didn't actually have hiv. He was given a false diagnosis or something.
The fact that this went the distance was amazing even a past his prime Foreman was still a monster with incredible power.
Foremans greatest feat was he could take a punch from anyone, a head of concrete.
Morrison was a gladiator. Great fighter. George Foreman an unbelievable performance. This was a great fight
maciano more great
There was hardly any clinching. They both earned their money for sure.
Morrison is one of the saddest what could have been stories of all time.
@@guillaumefrenkel6993 : 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😆😆😆..........
foreman was not unbelievable in this fight. He is believable. Had they meet on foreman's younger days, morrison is a mismatch.
Man, he hit so hard..so strong. He had no fear..He was relentless, always moving forward. I can understand why boxers really feared taking on Big George Foreman...
The only way anybody ever beat Foreman was by hitting and running away or covering up on the ropes. Tommy was running for his life towards the end of the fight. This is why Mike Tyson was tailor made for Foreman. Tyson wouldn't back up and that's just what Foreman wants.
Ali didn't FEAR Foreman and he knocked him out in the 8th round!
@@healthyone100 That was diff, foreman was a more seasoned fighter with better trainers in his comeback trail.Ali was great but was lucky he got foreman outta there like that and didn't fight him when they both got a bit older
@@midknightfalconfan Tyson always backed up when pressured on the back foot.
@@midknightfalconfan .....And a year later a 45 year old Foreman beat an undefeated 26 year old WBO champ with a 35-0 record (Michael Moorer) so, what's your POINT? A boxer can win on POINTS, too. Look at Floyd Mayweather. The Duke WON.
Simplesmente 2 dos mais brutos boxeadores que atuaram na história do esporte. Não era qualquer um que aguentava tomar pancada do Morrison. Foreman era surreal. Depois de Muhammed Ali foi dos melhores da história.
I was 11 years old at this time. I miss the 90s😢😢😢
That left hook from Tommy dropped most of the best boxers on the floor.
I am wondering what Forman's head is made of.
What a beast.
Best boxers? Like who? He fought no one!
@Killa Cam88 Would love to have seen Foreman fighting against Ernie Shavers and Mike Weaver. Shavers was 1 of the hardest punching heavyweights in history.
@@Smudgeroon74 Shavers IS the hardest hitter in history.

foreman in his 40's and can absorb punches like a real tough guy
@@studentofsweetscience6922 no
@@studentofsweetscience6922 its obvious ffs
Imagine if he would be idk 27y old... and now Imagine him at 2021 xd
George is still a tough guy. Age doesn’t change what you are
@@LuxHunt Foreman would be considered a small heavyweight in the current era. He would be the same height as Usyk.
What Foreman did in his 40s was just miraculous. I remember considering him a bit of a joke, but looking back now he certainly wasn't. Here's a guy who won Olympic gold a year after he took up the sport and then he's going 12 grueling rounds with 20 year old guys in his mid 40s. Hats off to you Big George. I miss Lampley's last round pre-planned dramatic summations. I always wondered how long he took preparing those ("It was 25 years ago that George Foreman was introduced to the public as an Olympic hero...")
The dark ones are sacred to death of a strong (((WHITE MAN)))....
Amazing stamina by Forman, and that while boxing basically flat footed, Wow ! And his ability to take punches and keep up , man !
Foreman was a damn juggernaut! What a nightmare. Hit him with all you got and he just keeps moving forward.
Foreman ate every punch with literally no reaction...
It’s just bazaar!
Human hitting an Ox🐃
From a guy with 40 plus KO's and a left hook like a Tsar bomba, no less.
That’s why Foreman is my #1 plus he’s a big fan of the Klitschko brothers too, I’m named after Wladimir
@@Kurtvileseggnog The Klitschkos are some of the best ever in the sport!
Foreman (at this age) looked like he couldn’t be bothered with anything resembling actual boxing technique. But with a chin like that it didn’t really matter - he just walked through every shot. Amazing
Greatest contribution George foreman ever made was that grill we all have in our kitchen on that countertop! Lmao 😂😂can I get an amen?!
He was just the frontman , Hulk Hogan turned down the job , it was supposed to be the Hogan Grill , he still regrets it to this day
I remember seeing this fight live all those years ago. I was surprised by how well Morrison moved. Clearly he and his corner knew not to make the mistake of standing in front of Big George and thinking Tommy would knock him out if he just landed one or two of his famous big left hooks. My goodness Big George had an incredible chin!
Another thing I remember, which is not shown clearly in this highlights video, is that at one point late in the fight, George had Tommy stunned and Tommy was there for the taking and George didn’t pull the trigger. He was asked about that in the after-fight interview and said he deliberately didn’t knock Tommy out at that point because he saw him as a young man with a great future, or something like that. It was surprising. It made me worried a bit for Foreman because someone who bet on him and lost a pile of money might have been rather upset, and done something about it.
There was a later fight for Foreman, against Shannon Briggs. I think it was his last fight. Foreman clearly won, but the judges gave the win to Briggs. Foreman was remarkably gracious, right after the fight, saying the judges had spoken and congratulating Briggs and telling him to be a good champion and make sure to avoid drugs and so on. And I remember Briggs, who looked very surprised at having been awarded the win, was responding with “yes sir, yes sir” and being very deferential to Foreman.
Foreman was, and is, an amazing human being in many ways.
If Tommy had fought the way he usually did in this fight, George probably would have killed him.
Steroids held Tommy up
I absolutely agree. A truly great man.
Which makes it all the more amazing how Ali defeated him in his prime.
@@harveyhester2113 you say that like the other 99% of the division weren’t on gear either.
God bless George Foreman. The man is a wall. And always one of my favorite people. Such a kind human being. Wish Tommy Morrison was still around too. So sad he left this world far too soon.
Yeah, Foreman is folksy cool. But someone should have shut his water off a long time ago.....lol
Yeah. Agree with you there mate. Tommy was a great guy and a great boxer. Died way too soon
YOU HAVE TO ADMIT THAT GEORGE FOREMAN BEING 44 YEARS OLD WAS STILL ABLE TO TAKE A PUNCH AND HIS JAW WAS LIKE METAL. HE WAS TRULY ONE OF THE GREATEST BOXERS WHO EVER ENTERED THE BOXING RING AND THE WORLD.
Except when he fought Ali.
@@MusicbyYoungLorenzo
Rumble in the Jungle was a classic!
George was amazing Probably hardest puncher of all time Everyone who fought him said they never felt so much power And George was and is a great guy
George Costanza?
Yeah, he was pretty strong.
Two great champions, one left us way too soon.R.I.P. Tommy.🥊🥊
What a sad ending Tommy had. Lesson for everyone that "friends" can be more deadly than enemies
we can blame the friends. but he is the one who took the drugs and booze and wanted to party all night with the girls...that does not work well togetehr with a boxing career let alone his health.
i see some great comments here. yours is price-less. i think this meeting was very special and the lives of the two men have brought out more depth in the comments. god bless.
With all my respect to the legendary Mohamed Ali but I consider Foreman as the greatest boxer of all times.
Except Ali knocked him clean out
I was 9 years old. Two of my favorite fighters at the time. Didn’t know who to cheer for…RIP T Gunn.
Foreman is one scary man to fight against. At one point he took a 3 power shot combo in sucession and kept walking forward like the Juggernaught he is. He doesn't give you any breaks. He seems unphased by 99% of all punches. The fact that I can hit him in the chin with all my strength, and he will continue to approach me is the stuff of nightmares!
That was Frazier's downfall. He was a relentless offensive boxer, but didn't know when to back off. Big George was
just too big and powerful to go toe to toe with.
juggernaut….great word choice!
@@funkster007 Right 🤣👍.
Against Holyfield, George took seventeen straight uppercuts at one point taking one stagger step forward, then shaking the entire barrage off and continuing forward. Like a much bigger version of Joe Frazier and nearly as tough.
haha, Nightmare George Foreman! i think a great comment on George's comeback career.
Omg Foreman immediately apologizing after low punch and checking on the floor if it slips at 7.05... He's the man,
One of Morrison's best performances. Those punches he was landing earlier in the fight would have knocked out almost anybody except for Forman.
Foreman's chin is legendary. Morrison landed nuclear shots on him, but Big George just kept coming. Absolutely mind-boggling that a man in his mid-40s retained such fortitude. I followed Foreman's comeback closely as it happened, and like many people I thought it was a publicity stunt and nothing more than a way to raise money. But long before the Morrison fight he'd made a believer out of me.
Yet, 32 year old Ali knocked out 25 year old in his prime George Foreman in the 8th round in Foreman's home town.
@@generic53 Ok. What's your point?

Idk what you’re on, but Ali beat the black off of George Foreman. Knocked his big ass the fk out.
@@studentofsweetscience6922 , tiny, diabetic Frazier, really?
@@studentofsweetscience6922 How stupid. Foreman came back in his mid-40s. Little Mike Tyson literally peaked around age 20 and was never championship material again. To discredit Foreman from crushing Frazier (a better version of Tyson) and Ken Norton (both twice) along with Ron Lyle and other monsters simply shows your bias.
@@dwaynesbadchemicals He's a fool.
One of the best heavyweight fights hands down.
George Foreman could definitely take a punch. Amazing man.
Two things that always amazed me with foreman after his return was his damn steel chin and cardio. How tf is this possible? Tommy is one of the hardest strikers in boxing history and he hit foreman clean so many times, But it barely grazed him. And look after the fight, foreman was still breathing trough his nose after 12 rounds of war at age 43, its unheard of. Best chin and cardio in combat sports history.
Absolutely... and without question, you are right about that..!
Yeah comeback Foreman was insane. He was hit with hundreds of shots flush on the chin by the hardest hitters in the world and never even went down once.
Totally TRUEEE"!!
If I remember correctly Foreman attributed it to being much more relaxed in his fights post-comeback, so he didn't burn up as much nervous energy
@@gravycustards3178 Yeah bro i researched a bit after this post and this is what he said himself. He paced himself much better knowing when to strike and when to take time off.
Tommy Rest in Peace!...You were a Legend in my eyes!...You kicked a lot of ass buddy!
Mas perdeu para o Rock
To bad he fought knowing he was sick and could get other fighters sick.
I know right it's makes me tear 😢 up some how he went to waste the last of his years the truth is he was an awesome boxer BUT LISTEN EVERYONE GOD MEANS WHAT HE SAYS THAT IS SIN WILL CAUSE DEATH BE SURE YOUR SINS WILL FIND YOU OUT PARTY LIFE KILLED HIM BUT I WILL ALWAYS REMBER THIS WHITE MIKE TYSON
@@tigknight6345 ^this, lost all respect for him after learning this.
@@fabioc7368 lost to the rock? 🤔
Foreman’s cardio for a guy his size is incredible.
George was always heavy handed and he took anything Tommy threw and basically walked through it. I always equated George to the song, "Anything you can do I can do better" except it would go a little something like this, "Anything you can throw hard I'll throw back harder. I can throw everything harder than you!" Lol.
That left hook that George was getting hit with put so many men out he’s a freaking beast
Them hits affected George, though. Look at George's body and the look on his face?? Tommy's punches looked to almost spin George's whole body like a spinning top. Foreman is just an elite tough guy, if he was any less, he'd be laying on that floor in this match.
The reason it didn't stop Foreman was because it wasn't enough. Foreman isn't those other guys. Tommy gas was gettin low he barely escaped this.
@@killingheros3554 I mean he’s only been beaten by legends if ya think about it and yea tommy especially at that time wasn’t known for his stamina that’s what cost him in the Mercer fight
Two of my favorites. George is the ultimate sportsman. I met him once and he is pretty amazing.
Top em estás lutas gostei parabéns 👏👏👏👏👏
This is my favorite version of Foreman. What a fighter.
Tommy Morrison was a strong and courageous fighter. I miss him
The strength and stamina show by Foreman at his age in this fight is outstanding, God keep blessing this amazing boxer of all time
Great video
Makes you wonder what would have happened if it was an old-time fifteen rounder. Seemed like Morrison was really gassing compared to Foreman.
Como é triste não tê-los mais entre nós. Duas lendas do boxe mundial.

Tommy had those combos. Anyone but Big George could not have taken those shots. Great fight. Underrated
Foreman is absolutely fun to watch, more so in his bald years of boxing. The way his guard is, his calm demeanor despite always seeming to land less punches, him appearing to walk through hard punches, and you could see how he stunned everyone whom he connected with his right. Makes you realize how much trouble Frazier was in, in their first fight.
It's amazing that the top fighters of the 90's had such a hard time with a fighter that was in his prime in the 70's
Well said
That is correct...Morrison would not have beaten Forman in his prime.
This is why the 90's overrall are overrated. 40+ Holmes & Foreman cleaned up the division. Any contender in the 90's would not even be in top 20 in the 70's.
Thank you for sharing that fight again. I've been watching pro pugilists since 68... both fighters made history that day. Inside the ring I've admired Tommy's and George's career! George, you're one of the greatest! Poor Tommy, thanks for the show kiddo!
Foreman está no topo dos melhores pugilistas mundiais! Impressionante com a idade que tinha nesse combate e aguentou com muita técnica os golpes de Morrison.
the incredible fact of this meeting is that in 1993 Tommi Morrison was 24 years old, Big George 44. Yes, 44 years old. This tells us so much about George Foreman's physicality, which is incredible.
Bruv, this is an amazing fight. Both are extremely powerful fighters.
E o Maguila?
Yes. They could be sisters 🙂
Excellent fight!! Love both of these fighters. George is like an unmovable Mountain. Tommy was a relentless warrior. 2 beasts battle for the win!
Thank you for sharing!..
Two Legendary fighters, one in the twilight of his career, the other in his young prime. George Foreman would still be feared today at his old age with the power he possesses in his hands!
After Ali knocked him out foreman hit rock bottom but Jesus saved him and it resirected his career, believing in something is a powerful tool!
One thing is for sure .. Tommy had guts ..very sad ending although for his life story
Choices in life came back to haunt him!
I wonder how different it would've been if someone had stopped him in the middle of his partying and helped him get with the right crowd of people.
Somebody did a full 45 minute documentary on him I think
Guts I see him running away against old foreman it’s foreman chasing him.
Foreman's follow through punching power is wild he hits hard even when he's older 😊
I can't believe how calm Foreman looks, like he is toying with Tommy
Foreman Vs Ron Lyle might be the greatest fight I ever watched..that round 4 Foreman/ Lyle in that fight is equal to Hearns vs Hagler round
Got to give the edge to the heavyweights simply because they were heavyweights. But, that Hagler - Hearns is just as good.
@@dinojay8410 that first round in that match wow . Herns tried to get him early. Hagler was natural in that weight tho and a awesome boxer
Foreman had a great chin... amazing he went the distance at his age. Inspiring.
Foreman also beat a younger Gerry Cooney in another battle of huge punchers in the early 1990s. Foreman was simply a beast, even well into his 40s.
The dark ones are sacred to death of a strong (((WHITE MAN)))....
I loved the way George Foreman fought,he was very respectful of all the opponents he faced,he didn't care what color they were,very professional and never would showboat, Probably my favorite fighter
And by the way he also had a IRON CHIN
Nothing but respect for both!!!
Miss ya Tommy..
Tommy hit hard, and George’s head never moved when it got hit. Amazing neck strength in that guy.
Loved George! White man from 🇬🇧 hopefully not necessary to say that, but I have. Big George, loved him, Legend! Absolutely a legend. Never disliked Morrison, RIP but the old boy would have took him apart in his day.
George Foreman is one of the greatest boxers of all time that cannot be denied. He is the kindest Warrior in the world.
yeah, and look at his demeanor before the defeat by Ali. Apparently Foreman was always a very very kind person underneath. Thank God - which George would do - we had his second carreer and life.
These were some good times in boxing!

This is a real combat not like mayweather
Yes, but it now showed more the level that heavyweight boxing was at during Muhammad Ali's period
Those Forman punches landed like BOMBS 💣🤛👊💪🏼 MISS WATCHING THIS BOXERS ! Rip CHAMP TOMMY GUN 😎🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊
A Morrison decision win was the last thing I would have ever expected going into this!
The Dukes greatest performance rest in peace brother
As a young man I remember being annoyed at Morrison for "running". Watching it again in recent years I realized (as an older more mature man) that he did the right thing and fought a great fight, arguably the top and shining moment of his career. Had he fought Mercer this way maybe he could've outpointed him, although Mercer was a BEAST.
If he was more disciplined he would've been so much more... and what a chin Foreman had!
Boxing was so much better back then...
R.I.P Tommy Morrison.
Foreman is superb power in the world. great legend!
Great match, Morison is younger faster and better, George Foreman's thigh was dangerous until the end, amazing how he takes these devastating blows and always moves forward. George is a natural force, incredible strength and power, a legend, one of the best ever!😍
Foreman is my favorite boxing personality. Such a likable, funny guy... Named all of his kids George🤣. Always hated his fights when he got older tho, takin too many shots. But he's still sharp today! 💪
Classic fight! Both fighters show real heart, tough chins & punches.
Only those who realized how a beast Morrison was at his prime, would recognize Foreman's feat here. An insane display of skill and toughness by Foreman.
Yea this tom would had koed a young george fast easy to see
@@cmoneytheman lol he couldn't even KO the old, out of shape Foreman. Foreman is his prime would KO tommy 10 out of 10 times with ease.
@@youssefgmail8599 sure he would ron who hit way less hard and stood right there trading almost koed george oh and Ron in 1st round had george all over the place close to end of the round didn't see that did you which showed george was real easy to hurt with hard shots
but tom who used way more movement would lose to george even though he wouldnt just stand there sure george would ko a man that does that easy good job exposing you don't watch matches troll
@@youssefgmail7 it was nobody in 70s who had as good of movement combined with power that tom had
Really is odd u would say that cause most know this george was the best ver he had real defense and didn't watch punches and didn't just push like his young self which left himself open alot but you said for some silly reason that way to flawed george would last with this tom odd like I said u showed u dont watch matches u fools exposed yourselves not me
Like if u had sense this is the George that should had have a good chance to ko this tom cause he had more skills then his young self like u really slow he didnt cause as I said tom didnt just stand there he moved around he used angles and he threw off georges rhythm
Georges needed his people to stand there and trade or who didn't move much to land often almost any george fan or person who doesnt like his style knows this
@WB Morrison fought George in 1993. He was diagnosed with HIV only in 1996. Fighters do constantly testing, so there's absolutely no way he got affected by HIV when he faced Foreman. Get your facts straight.
