The peaking Quarry that owned Lyle and Shavers in '73 would take Mike's heart out.

Correction: as Foreman said when Frazier passed: "Joe never saw 5'10"
And speaking as one 6'0 who stood eye to eye with Joe shaking hands (after roadwork with him) I can attest George was surely right, and that Joe was 5'9ish

C'mon guys! In '73 Quarry owned Earnie Shavers slugging and Ron Lyle boxing and for those efforts got ducked by Foreman (who admitted it). Thus, ANYone suggesting a 180# Foster would do anything other than crumple REAL fast under Jerry's blitz is simply absurd. See Foster against Frazier. Same scena...

No, Napoles was just peaking at 29 when he won the title. His prime was in his early 30s, up to age 33.
