This is a dream match george foreman used to half a** hit a fighter and knock him out without even trying and the fact that mike tyson is not knocking george foreman out early means he would have to sit in there with him & mike was sometimes a brat if he couldn't run thru you in a few rounds he'd loose confidence unless he's dominating you each round the fight lasts & mike beat most guys by intimidating them and making them fight intimidated and george foreman would definitely not have been intimidated. Tyson im thinking would prolly have met his match with george i cant think of anyone George didnt fight who could have done anything with george but sonny liston & maybe earnie shavers
This would of been great to watch. I just don't see how Foreman would land on a prime Mike. Foreman was a beast, and probably hit harder, but he was def. slow. Tyson was much quicker. If they would of fought in the Late 80's early 90's Tyson would of demolished George, like he did Holmes. Prime vs Prime much more competitive.
For sure, Foreman destroyed Joe Frazier with ease. It took Holyfield everything he had just to win by decision. Holyfield whooped Tyson easily and embarrassingly, yet he had mad problems vs Foreman. Foreman even said himself that he could beat Tyson by KO and Tyson did run from that fight as well as other fights. See Foreman vs Ron Lyle, you can't out power Foreman.
@lestermount:dundee died in feb 2012
Dundee is probably the best surviving expert and historian in boxing today.
He has forgotten more about boxing than I, or the vast majority of fans knows.
If he says something he means it, he does not have any dog in any fight so he would not say something to promote or hurt anyone.
His opinion means more than my opinion, so I agree with him.

I agree with him, I've asked Tyson about whether he avoided George and his answers simply don't make any sense, and it's well documented that he didn't want anything to do with Tyson.
Thoughts on the interview?
