Dudes skull looks like it’s made out of frickin’ steel. Jesus.

George was a breath of fresh air at a time when the sport was maligned

[@morgs456]

Total legend

[@theylied1776]

Whoever the director was in the booth should have been fired after this interview. The close-ups were ridiculous. They kept trying to get a tight frame to show how his face was swollen from his recent fight, but the interviewer made that clear by pointing it out.

This is how Canada takes care of their gems... Pathetic
In stead, now if Canada is such a big, strong advocate for their Hero`s in sport
Should put at least 5 statue of this great boxer, even greater person !!!

GEORGE "NEVER" got knocked down.

George has dementia for the last 4 years, he's 84 this month

[@inspectordartrellmiller3749]

Yeah he’s 84 🤨

[@BigBrainLynx]

Very upsetting, I'm glad he lived to be this age though.

Cooper would not fight Chuvalo

[@briangreen8887]

Did he break Mohamed Ali jaw in the fight ?

[@David-ej7qq]

@ Brian Green it was Kenny Norton who broke Muhammad Ali's jaw during their fight.
