We already got one super fight in 2017 with Mayweather vs. McGregor, but George Foreman just laid down a challenge that could be even better.
George Foreman challenged Steven Seagal to a super fight in Las Vegas
Yes, please.
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
It’s unclear why Foreman wants to fight Steven Seagal, and it’s largely irrelevant. How many times do we get to see a 68-year-old former world heavyweight champion fight a 65-year-old action movie star?
This would have to be an MMA fight. It’s the only way to get around the stylistic differences between the two. Let’s head to the tale of the tape:
Tale of the Tape
# | George Foreman | Steven Seagal |
|---|---|---|
| Age | 68 | 65 |
| Height | 6' 3 1/2" | 6' 4" |
| Weight | 260 pounds | 287 pounds |
| Boxing titles | 2 | 0 |
| Akido blackbelts | 0 | 1 |
| Movies | 9 | 55 |
| Grills pioneered | 1 | 0 |
| Friends with Vladimir Putin? | No | Yes |
This would be the most compelling fight between two men pushing 70. A lot of people out there think Foreman has the edge and would end the fight in one punch, but Seagal has a lot of skill he’s hidden under massive amounts of hair dye.
This fight needs to happen.
