George "Monk" Foreman now 12-0 (11 KO's)

He definitely herited some of his father power. Watch this fight:

They found that fat dude on the street. There's no way he's a pro boxer.

 

I've seen flabby heavyweights but that guy'd probably be a junior welterweight if he leaned out. If he's being matched against these type of guys at all, let along in his 12th pro fight I need see no more.

 

It's his fourth fight.

 

George "Monk" Foreman now 12-0 (11 KO's)

...

 

I should have made it clear in the topic that it was an earlier fight.

 

Still, I think that Foreman looks impressive. He throws hard punches and he is built like a tank. You can see he is his father's son.

 

is he ready to square off with sam?

 

He looks absolutely dilettante to me

 

That was horrible. The guy had two sets of asscheeks, one on top of the other. I'd be surprised if he had the stamina to work as a Walmart greeter.

 

I'll say this... when he isn't actually throwing punches, but just standing there in his stance, he really does look like a young version of his dad.

He's shit.

 

You guys are FAR too negative about Foreman. The guy has potential. Too bad he is already 28. Just wait two more years and you will see what I mean.

 

The way Brad splatted on the canvas ::

 

Sorry man, but he's got nothing going for him except non-fatness and a passing resemblance to his Dad. Maybe next time they make an Ali film he can translate that into a movie role but thats the brightest prospect in his boxing related future.

 

I feel guilty just for watching that. I'll have to perform a good deed today.

 

Well what exactly is he doing wrong then? Don't you think he can improve a lot? Don't forget that he had no amateur career. He only had 12 fights and that was his fifth fight. The guy is athletic and strong. Don't you agree?

 

That was terrible. The guys britches were way too small for him. Awful advertisement for boxing.

 

As I said he looks like a dilettante (which of course he is, with no amateur career) - you can see the wheels turning before he does absolutely everything like somebody who walked into the gym a year previous. He has to think to do thinks right, its conscious competence and it'll unravel whenever he fights a proper pro never mind a good one. He was indicating so much that fat guy off the street was trading off most his jabs early.

His only hope would be to make up his experience shortfall by fighting far more regularly & for him to really intensively improve on the job. Like say Chavez Jr did.

 

Monk Foreman SUCKED the Last Time Rainmaker WASTED a Thread on him...NATHAN has Changed...Different Thread, Same Level of SUCKAGE...



REED:mj:

 

I'm thinking buffet. They probably waited until he was done eating before they even served him up to "Monk" too.

 

he could be the next "King of the 4 Rounders", just like his dad was in the 70's ::

 

Something of interest is that Foreman hasn't fought 1 fighter with a winning record.

 

LOL,he's fought ONE guy with a winning record (15-14-2) and he was on a 4 fight losing streak. ONE of his 12 opponents was coming off a win and that guy had 61 loses in 91 fights.

So there you see his handlers opinion of his abilities and it's even less favourable than ours.

 

beat me to it

 

Haha, snap.

Yeah, then I realised it's not ACTUALLY a winning record, although he's won 15 and lost 14, he's still won less than half of his total fights, which means it's not really a winning record.

 

I wonder if it's difficult for team to keep finding guys this shitty? I mean obviously there are a lot crappy fighters out there. (if you can even call them that) but you'd figure at some point they'll have trouble scraping that barrell and will pick a guy based only on their underwhelming record. Then comes the upset.

 

I wonder how much these guys get paid

 

I think there is some sort of barter involved. No actual cash.

 

Yep, a Foreman Grill.

 

I wondered the same thing. And how much "Monk" gets paid.
