Why was Big George jobbed?

THe powers that be decided the old man's day had passed. Bad decision but in a way it was karma for the Axel Schultz robbery.

Why oh why did it have to be that loser they gave the title to, though?

stumbling around in bad decision fights against schulz, savarese and to some extent grimsley caught-up with foreman. even the punch was going. bad decision none the less.

I was scared someone was going to come along and pulp Old George so I was quite pleased with the decision. George had nothing left to prove and was going to continue until he lost.

He absolutely should've ended matters with the fight against Moorer. That was enough.
