George won that fight absolutely no doubt about it.

George outlanded him 284 punches to 223. He was absolutely robbed by the judges.

After watching the highlight, a prime George destroys Briggs. At 48 to do what he did in the ring against a 25 year old is incredible

This fight was one of the biggest robberies in boxing history!

George Foreman was absolutely robbed of his title and still remained a class act a true champion... always will be a champ in my eyes

George is one of the toughest men who ever lived

No way, George bounced this joker across the ring in every round. George is a champion and a gentleman

Win, lose, or draw Foreman epitomizes the heart of a true champion and sportsman.

Even though George was slow,he was still hitting Briggs with a lot of punches. George is the perfect example of a real champion and a real honourable man. LEGEND much respect

Yes...only the judges didn't see the fight! Comment section got it! George is the true gentleman of the ring!

I feel George won the fight but at this point in his career someone in charge decided that they were going to rob Foreman anytime he went the distance. His only chance to get a fair decision was via knockout.

Big George won no doubt.

George won that fight. No way Shannon did Just shows how fixed the fight game is

george is amazeing, , the way he conducts himself is such a great example to all. everyone knows who won that fight,

George Foreman is 1 of the best men to ever walk the earth.

I remember as a teenager seeing George’s comeback in real time. It was incredible to see.

Mr. Foreman defintely got robbed a victory. But His class at a loss is impeccable.

George was the most brutal, fearless, and powerful boxer I've ever seen. I was listening to him tell a story of him playing with his "pet Lion" in his yard. The Lion all of a sudden attacked his bother and was going to kill him. George automatically attacked the Lion, and took a big swing but just missed the lion's head. He said, that the Lion knew he meant business, and a fight ensued between George and the Lion. He said he "dispatched" the Lion, but did not say how, so I don't know if he used a gun, or a knife or what, but "very few" guys would have the guts to attack a full grown lion that weighs 500 lbs. George was fearless, and nothing intimidated him, and he never has a bodyguard,like many other fighters. I truly admire this mountain of a man, and also really a gentleman with a good sense of humour. We'll never see another like him.

George with hair is probably one of scariest men to walk planet earth

HOW is this not a Foreman win?

Thank you George for all the great fights. To see you as such a sportsman in a loss is a lesson for generations to come.

George Foreman is just class you can not buy. One of the hardest punchers boxing has ever seen. Devastating power in the golden era of the division... His humility after the fight in the ring, is so remarkable. Its not age, its just class, he didn't want to sour the moment for Briggs, when so many people were ready to tear down Brigg's performance, on HBO and in the crowd, George was there to uplift him.... & the performance, at 48, in the most dangerous of divisions, iconic.

That post fight interview from George was awesome 👏

George is definitely a hard hitter

This was Foreman's LAST FIGHT! It was his last fight after decades of boxing! How many boxers do you know, perform this well at the age of 48 with one eye on retirement? Almost nobody... Not only did he perform well, it's quite obvious Foreman won this fight to almost anyone who watched it. This fight was fixed. It was fixed by Foreman and the boxing community. Foreman was ready to be done. Boxing was ready for him to be done. He merely wanted one last great performance to show the grand kids how bad ass, even at 48, he still was. Foreman landed harder and more often. How Briggs got the win, leaves a person scratching their head. Foreman's performance though... just.... Amazing!!!

Wow still find it hard to believe Briggs got that decision. What class from George

Muhammad Ali must've been very proud of George foreman 🙌🥊

The younger guys always slept on Foreman power and ability to take hits.

The maddest I ever been over a decision. This was George final fight should have got the victory he clearly won.

Briggs was definitely not 'unknown' when he fought Foreman, even though he'd gotten knocked out before. And he lost this fight. They just wanted Foreman out of there.

The fact is George was a good man right from the beginning but people accepted him only in his comeback.. He is a Lion Hearted person

long time mma fan, new boxing fan and this channel is like crack.

George fucking won that fight

when you have a "punches landed" score that clearly goes in George's favour, and neither of them got knocked out, how the flippin' heck did the fight go to the other guy. Briggs himself looked like he'd lost. The guy who picked him up might have known of a Briggs rig. The level-headedness of George is admirable.

George foreman was a strong person with excellent boxing skill' and shear power i love him and Muhammad Ali true heavyweight legends

Everybody knows Big George got robbed. It was controversial.

13:56 it made me cry to see George be a man like that

48 years old foreman is robbed in this fight

Someone didn’t want Foreman to fight Lewis… just saying.

That was completely corrupted. Those judges were paid off. It was an easy win for George.

Absolute Farce George won that fight!! What a True Gent George was afterwards!!👍

George was robbed of this fight because he didn't score a knockout.

Best boxing channel on UKposts right now, it's always fun to discover some of these fights thanks to you. 😊👍🏻

Mohammed Ali once said that out of all his pro bouts George had the most hardest punch of em all.

he went 31-3 after coming back at age 38 .. crazy

George is tougher than a two dollar steak ,this was a great night,he may of peaked on this day ,one word ,gladiator ,wow.never under estimate anyone age is a number.😳 I love George's nice demeanor .

Foreman won

I luv Big George, a real Man through and through.

Probably better that Briggs ended up facing Lennox Lewis. Hard to imagine a near 50-year-old George having much success against Lewis.

Foreman won that fight.

George Foreman only man to terrify Iron Mike.

What a class act big George was

george one of my favorite boxer the legend❤😊❤

George is great man God bless him

Great video! What kind of a man is this George Foreman! 🎉✨

The judges say he lost but the whole world knows that he won that night. Great job George

A 48 year old beating a 25 year old. I remember watching this fight,and after the decision…….Just shaking my head in disbelief.

I can only imagine George in his prime knocking Briggs through the ropes. From what I could see, Formans left racked up a ton of points. It was clear to me he won that fight, but what was awesome was his reply to losing the decision. He showed concern for Briggs loss of his mother over any other thing. That is a true champion forever in my book. Big George did not seem to throw that huge upper cut that lifted men off their feet in his younger days. The only reason he lost to Jimmy Young was that the network asked him not to take him out early. Normally, forman would knock his opponents out early in his younger days. He would get gassed when someone clinched and held,well, the network needed more beer commercials, so they wanted the fight to last as long as possible. Young was not a threat with any power,he would run and clinch.

George was a fucking unit, point blank period

Wow what a travesty. George is such a beautiful person. He was a fearsome beast in the '70s who knew he was hiding such wit and charm. Incredible

20 years younger, and he would have run through him... not just beat him

George is the Great man after he gave his life to theTrue King, Jesus Christ...made George the best and the Greatest Boxing Champion of all time.

George Foreman has always been a humble savage who doesn't make excuses and very different from a clown like Holmes who is full of scapegoats. Mike Tyson and George Foreman my best boxers ever.

Boxing after dark saved my life😂

George definitely won I remember this. How they took this fight from an older man is disgusting.

George is a Great Man he knows he won but so classy he is a legend

This channel is superb!

I didn't even know they fought. It was hard to stop Big George from coming forward. Like Vernon Maxwell said about Jordan " That mutha..... Just keep coming at you😅 💯

George,one of the greatest heavyweights,I follow him,Ali,Joe,they were real down to earth fighters, trained hard,and respected each other,not like today young fighters,heavyweight division, win a belt don't train, party,don't even get a good pay day.

Foreman was ROBBED for a clear victory this day. Listen to the commentators and see the scorecard. Briggs was on the backfoot the whole night.... How on earth could the judges see Briggs as the winner?

George Foreman won that fight 👏

George is a class act. Gotta love him.

George legend.

Astonishing to think he was 23 years older !

George got robbed plain as day

YOU WON THAT FIGHT, GEORGE!!! No offense against Shannon Briggs, an excellent boxer. It is just clear to see, George was robbed.

Briggs is a gutsy fighter and I’ve seen him in some real battles but in George’s prime he wouldn’t have last the first round and I don’t think he won this fight either.

I like editing and narrating of the video. And George Foreman is amazing! Now I would like to see his fight against Tommy Morrison.

Ive seen Big G given the decision once against Axel Shultz who beat Big G's eyes shut. But this was another bad decision agreed 💯%

George Foreman the true boxing GOAT 🐐

George is a class act. Very professional and wanting to set an example to his boys.

What an injustice 😮

My Jaw dropped, when they said George lost, the most corrupt decision i have seen.

(Let's go Champ!) - George Foreman 😂

George was a class act in this fight. The way he took defeat just put him right up there in the eyes of the masses. Shannon Briggs was declared the winner of the contest but George left the ring a true champ. Sometimes it's just the man and the moment.

Big George is such an enigma. He is literally the opposite kind of fighter in career two as compared to career one. Young George was a wild swinging impatient, mean spirited raw machine of power. Older George is patient, calculated, throws mostly shorter punches, lots of jabs and a kind heart. Man I miss watching Big George. Such a unique great champion.

George is top5 all time

How he was able to fight like that at that age.... Amazing. How did he fight well 20 years before than that ? Look.. How he fight againt a guy bigger than him... Incredible

Clearly seen in my view that George Foreman is still a heavy hitter from his days with Muhammed Ali etc. Sad for Shannon Briggs didn’t go too far to cement his flamboyant in his time.

Foreman is the real deal champ and he definitely won this fight with briggs

Even Shannon Briggs couldn't believe his luck 🤣🤣

Dave Maretti was the extreme spread in both Loma & Tank fights, that clear enough to ban him from boxing!!!

George was an absolute tank . I've never known a boxer deliver such heavy punches and to take them ! Great athlete 👍

Briggs wasn't in Foremans class

Wow. Ole. George!!! Amazing!!! 😃😄🙏❤🤙🤜👊🤛❤

I would've liked it if George attacked the body in the 1st 5-6 rounds, to slow briggs down. Then attacked the head in the later rounds.

How did Big George not win this fight?

Let's go champ

Correction to the comment at 4:45 “….considering Foreman had only ever been knocked out once, 23 years prior, by the great Mohammed Ali…” True, Big George hit the canvas but he was worn completely out and could barely stay on his feet. Ali knocked him down but even while he was lying there, his head was off the canvas and he was looking around. He wasn’t “knocked out”.

Absolutely Great!!! Ex pro boxer foundered of Boxing VS UFC and best fight predictor of all times!! Rocky the Eastern Assassin Esterline!! These 2 are the only 2 that in Boxing you just can't hurt them they have proved this there hole career!!!!
