Earnie Shavers is a personal friend of mine and one of the nicest guys anyone could meet. He's a very humble dude.

This fight looks more unbelievable than any Rocky movie. Williams going for the kill with Shavers was out on his feet. Shavers winged a right hand on instinct with enough power to rock williams until he shavers head cleared and stopped that Tiger with a delayed knockdown showing just how deadly a blow to the head can be.

Tiger Williams had a good plan. But I heard somebody say he had a sparring partner mentality. He had shavers out on his feet but didn't follow through!.... Both guys were dead tired and then Williams gets a standing 8 count and he was too exhausted to continue. He lost because he was exhausted! It must have been hot that night in the stadium!

George knows who to mess with. A couple of guys were in the same camps sparring and missed opportunities to fight one another.

For boxing youth; before committing to a trainer make sure you see how they've worked in the past, like this fight. The corner could have screwed up a big win for Shavers by climbing into the ring during the fight, as well as following him to a neutral corner. They didn't even act as good as amateurs.

Tiger Williams was a mystery. Great quick,sharp left hook...upstairs and down....especially those counter drag hooks.....clever defender......but had sparing partner syndrome...fought just hard and busy enough not to win. In many fights, He frequently built impressive advantage then stopped punching and slipping and let his opponents rally...... if he just let his hands go a little more often.......

Ken Norton Was Afraid To Look At George Foreman! Roy Williams Also Gave Larry Holmes A Run For His Money!

Now we know that this fight was fixed from the beginning after listening to Sammy the Bull. The mob was involved with these fights he said. It's obvious now that Williams was trying to let Shavers win all the rounds and backed off once he realized he was about to knock Shavers out. So unfair to the people.
Look like Tiger Williams doing the rope a dope lol

Shavers should have at least half of his wins nullified because he made a regular habit of doing this. Watch his first round knockout of Jimmy Ellis. He tried to do it to Jerry Quarry but Arthur Mercante put a stop to that.

Shavers had a couple of chances to be world champion: ES hit Larry Holmes so hard Larry was knocked out before he hit the canvass, LH said when he hit the canvass that's what woke him up. ES had Ali in serious trouble but Ali put on an act like he was really hurt worse than he was and ES knowing Ali's ring savvy didn't rush in too finish Ali and just that couple of seconds hesitation gave Ali a chance to gain his facilities and win the match in the end. ES during this period was the best fighter to have never won the title, he definitely had Larry Holmes in serious trouble.

A similar style of fight(except mike Tyson does more footspeed, bob and weave) is the Mitch Greene vs Mike Tyson fight. Except Shavers manages to put his man away.
@emzid51053 жыл бұрын
Tyson would had great trouble against shavers. Don't forget the reach of shavers, he got very long arms wich isn't obviously the case fro mike. Yes tyson is faster, but shavers isn't slow neither.
