One of the things I like about george is his use of old grappling techniques from the older generations of boxing. That forward guard to catch punches, using the hands to manipulate the opponent's position. Only better grappler in boxing was duran

Foreman doesnt get enough credit for his boxing skills. He wasn't just a big puncher

Old school is the best school.

Luv this, finally some footage of Big George training, what a legend.

My favourite heavyweight, Big George!! Chin of steel with dynamite in both hands.

The sparing partners is doing a great job working George.

It's crazy how he's possibly the hardest hitter of all time, yet seems such a nice guy outside the ring

This is gold! I always loved how well George used frames, stops, posts, leverage blocks, etc. getting to see him work his active guards in a relaxed, playful setting is fantastic!

Foreman has some of the most underrated boxing skills ever. Wish he had boxed vs Ali a second time

This is what I don’t see today is boxers that are fighting their own way. They seem to be going by the book but like Rocky George is doing what feels comfortable and effective for him. Fluid and relaxed,ready to fire back at will and making it seem effortless.

4:13 beutyful by george

I study foreman’s technique, he enjoys catching punches and parrying, he likes to apply pressure by taking and catching punches

Foreman looked like he had good footwork and defense in this sparring session something you never saw when he actually fought in his earlier career when he would just step forward and swing

This is GOLD!

Very interesting footage!

Foreman was a beast! And nice footwork. Who would of thought

Watched this 100 times and I’m still mesmerized

Foreman was an incredible boxer. This is a great video

all the love from me. great to watch and learn from this sparring

1:42 already would be the first knockdown. never duck george :)

this is gold

Great great sparring

possibly the most patient fighter I have ever seen in any combat sport. He often gets noted for his power, but he was also a very talented fighter. A lot of people forget that Archie Moore helped bring him up as a fighter and were close back in the day and it shows by the way he fought and is sparring here. smooth, calm, not rushing into the action, picking shots, his footwork for a big man that threw with exceptional power is phenomenal, his pivoting and positioning off the jab is just amazing if you pay attention closely... not too many big strong power punchers can move like that. Definitely a top-tier great, his comeback, his years in his prime all of it.... his greatness as a fighter is undeniable.

Proper sparring not bullying the sparring partner but leaning technique

Tru sparring right here folks...Big George working on weaknesses such as defense head movement....he never fought like that though ...he had a cast iron Chin...and would just annihilate his opponents......he was pretty technical IMHO 😎

Wtf foreman looked like he never threw a punch with more then like 10-25% power and yet they still sounded like a shotgun. Unreal

Foreman could’ve played OLB he big ash 😂😂😂💯

4:12 those would put me in a hospital

Dick Sadler gets my award for bravery. Christ, Foreman was rattling his brains with a big padded bag protecting him. Can you imagine how Quawi and Bert Cooper must've felt when they took a body shot? Cooper flew sideways about 3 feet when GF unloaded a hook to his side. Check it out. It's here somewhere.....

Wow..

the "FRANCIS NGANNOU of the 70's"

Any footage of him sparring with sonny liston? Foreman always threw some awkwards punches, if he worked more on speed and making the punches more straight, he would have those knockouts earlier

4:31 WOW, He's a genius..always pulls a rabbit out of his hat.

I wasn't even born lol foreman Tyson listoon best heavyweights with power

Foreman at this time....don't nobody wanna fight him at his prime like this. Real Monster

George fights exactly like a bigger version of Sandy Saddler.

Is that Stan Ward sparring big George?

Gentle knight

Big George was the Francis Ngannou of the 1970's

Joshua?Usyk?GEORGE FOREMAN TOP LVL

If Ali beat Foreman by out witting him ...then surely he would come up with a plan to beat a prime Tyson....Ali was way to smart with boxing knowledge...Tyson had the training and skillset but it's called the sweet science and Ali was a professor...Ali hands down...only young people who don't know boxing would claim Tyson as Victor....😎🇺🇸

Who is George sparring with here? It looks like Ken Norton.

He's just playing

is that Ken Norton

I don’t mind boxing like George Foreman Simple, but Effective

Is that Liston are what

Interesting style, not common

4:40.

Tyson in his prime before cus died and don King got involved would have knocked both of them out in one round

The noise when George hits his partner is amazing

1

You can't persuade me to be a Mr. Foreman's sparring partner.... No.. just no

YOU WILL NEVER SEE IT IN MODERN BOXING, EVEN AT THE WELTERWEIGHT DIVISION. BIG GEORGE, A CLAMSY GUY, IF YOU COMPARE HIM WITH ALI OR FRAZIER, SEEMS TO BE MORE DESTEROUS, THAN DE LA HOYA OR MOSLEY.

He had a lot of very bad habits

Such an ugly slow clubbing style. But so much power

Love how hes not even trying to hurt him yet his punches still sound like bombs

4:50.
