Title: George Foreman evil?
Post by: jephrius on March 03, 2013, 06:32:17 PM
Teddy Atlas accused Foreman of being a phoney and a con artist and also stated he wasn't afraid of him. Moorer also accused Foreman of dihonesty. Was the "loveable" George Foreman of the late eighties/early nineties a ruse?

Teddy Atlas and Michael Moorer were sour grapes because Foreman knocked Moorer out and won the title. Teddy Atlas is a mental case.

Yes, before he lost to Ali there were many ways Foreman's behavior could have been compared to Tyson.

Atlas is a bitter school girl. He talks about punking a young Tyson proving he is a liar.

Boxing writer named Pedro Fernandez, and boxer Larry Holmes. I'm not sure if it's totally true because it's only mentioned a few times, mostly by Holmes, who dislikes Foreman, but it could be. The dog apparently was the famous one Foreman brought with him to Zaire during the Rumble in The Jungle fight.

Foreman really was sort of a proto- Tyson in the early years.

Interesting.   If it is true then I guess he turned his life around for the better.

George was surly and angry when he was younger. After one of his last first career fights, he really did have some kind of conversion experience. Good for him. I like the guy.

George seems cool but maybe deep inside an asshole may be thriving. Nice thought but it's his business.

The more punishment those dogs receive the more they love it.
George's dog is most likely one of Moohammad's right hand men in hell now.

of course he found out that a smile makes you money. he  adopted his demeanor from young when he approached football legend jimmy brown, and brown just glared at him. so george figured that's how you treat people, till he got old and became everybodys favorite uncle. much like mike tyson's act now.

George idolized Jim Brown? Well,he did play high school football in the 60's.

Though,it's said the man,who he most patterned himself on was the former World Champion Sonny Liston,for whom he was a sparring partner, in the late 60's . Maybe, the mean persona just appealed to him.


Sonny-like George-had a heavy structure.George has famously big hands and Sonny's seem to be slightly bigger.
