Both in prime
Round 1 - The Big Bear aka Sonny Liston, comes in and throws a few jabs, Sonny's 84 inch reach assures him that his jab will land, George throws a few jabs but misses, as Foreman weighing 225lbs, and Liston weighing 218lbs, Liston is able to out-maneuver George and dominate round 1 with casual-powerful jabs. Round ends.
Round 2 - Big George aka George Foreman needs to win this, George, knowing he can't waste his stamina, needs to land a powerful shot on his chin. Round starts. Liston comes in and again, throws a few jabs, George opens a defense and stays blocks his jabs, George, knowing he can KO Liston, needs to do it fast, and that he knows a KO is his only chance, as Liston gets close, George uses his 3 inch height advantage (6"4) to tower above Sonny and throw a combination of jabs, it opens a cut above Sonny's eye. He then throws another jab but misses. Round ends.
Round 3 - Liston knows his skin can cut, as this happened with his fight with Muhammad Ali, he needs to win by KO or TKO too, he cannot simply go the distance, knowing he will get too injured by cuts. Liston goes in and aggressively throws jabs and lands a powerful-solid right on George's face, George recovers quickly and holds on for a seconds, the ref intervenes and stops them holding. George then notices the cut above Sonny's eye, and opens a combination of jabs onto that cut, and is lucky that his 82 inch reach can help him land them. Round ends.
Round 4 - George will know he can finish Sonny if he gets him against the ropes, so as round 4 starts George rushes in and throws a solid left on Sonny, Sonny stumbles and gets knocked into the ropes, George then throws 2 rights, but only lands one, he then opens a combination on Sonny, and pounds and pounds, and gets 5 solid powerful shots on Sonny's eye, it starts to bleed, like it did with Muhammad Ali vs Sonny Liston I. The ref is about to stop the fight, but the round ends, and Sonny is saved by the bell.
Round 5 - George gets aggressive, knowing his is naturally bigger and stronger, and more powerful than Sonny, knows he can KO Sonny, despite Sonny having a 2 inch reach advantage, and being a more skilled-faster boxer. Round starts. George rushes in and throws a powerful right, it lands on Sonny, he then jabs and jabs, and just as Sonny tries to jab, the jab lands, but doesn't stop George. Sonny is getting tired, so is George, Sonny is getting tired and dizzy, that cut is too strong. Sonny tries to hold, but the fight is taken to the center of the ring, George then throws a right, a left, and throws one big, powerful uppercut. The uppercut lands in style, as it lands on Sonny's chin, cleanly. It sends a shock-wave through Sonny's head, Sonny falls. He tries to get up, but can't. He can't stand the power of Big George, he then stays down, unable to get up. Loses the count, and is out. He's been KO'd. The crowd goes wild in excitement, George puts his hands in the air, showing he has won. And then stares into the crowd.
George Foreman wins 5th round KO.
