    baer was a very underrated fighter
    He's very overated. Foreman in 4.

    Baer had 13 losses, only the KO loss against Louis is understandable. Losing to a guy like Braddock and other less the par fighters dissmisses him as an all time great.
    Very overated IMO and wouldn't stand a chance against Foreman. Georges chin is too good and a toe to toe brawl would always favour the stronger more focussed Foreman.

        I've seen 2 of his fights and there really isn't anything overly special about him.

        People have only recently took notice of him since Bert Sugar licked his balls for a short moment.

          what about "rumble in the jungle"? Big George punched himself out within a few rounds and if foreman did that would Bear punch himself out in less rounds? im just trying 2 c hu would have the better stamina based on this

            I'd favour Ali's ability to take punishment over Baers. Anyone else laying on the ropes in Zaire would be KTFO.
            Foreman only punched himself out once in 81 fights and was only stopped once inside the distance through exhaustion.

            If Baer was fighting in hot Africa and was swinging arm punchers non stop for 8 rounds you can bet him or almost anyone else would be tired as well.

                I'm saying it's hard to judge over 1 particular fight. George showed pretty good stamina in the rest of his fights.

                All I know for sure is, George trained a lot harder than Baer and he took boxing much more seriously.
                So I say George will be the guy in better shape and probably has better stamina.

                    Thats how I reached my conclusion after looking at both fighters.

                    Foreman also came out on top agianst bigger guys than Baer with just as much punching power. Ron Lyle and Gerry Cooney were big men with huge punchers.

                    So Foreman wins because he trains harder and he beat the better opposition.
