    30 years ago Foreman KOs Moorer to win the HW title at age 45 while wearing the same trunks that he wore when he fought against Ali.

    Ali’s own people didn’t even believe he could win. That alone is telling of how big an upset this was, along with seeing Foreman destroy Frazier and Norton the way he did, knowing those two men gave Ali good whippings.

    One of the most iconic moments in all of sports.
