He also said that he felt Foreman had him out on his feet, but he knew how to recover. And as history showed, Ali’s rope a dope got to Big George .

He couldn’t handle Young so how could he handle Ali (both has the same fighting technique). It would be a total embarrassment for him if he had lost to Ali in a rematch. That’s why he retired. You can say same about Forman. He also didn’t give Moore the second chance. In my opinion Fraizer was 100 time better than Foremen in the case of handling Ali. Foreman couldn’t land a single clean hit on Ali's face. It was a total disgrace. Watch the fight carefully.
