Following his fighter Michael Moorer's loss in his fight against George Foreman, Teddy Atlas revealed details about Foreman's resilience and journey to redemption. Foreman had previously been forced into retirement due to a loss to Muhammad Ali. Then, he spent a decade away from boxing, focusing on his faith and grappling with his defeat. However, Foreman could not be at peace without confronting his past and thus returned to the sport. Teddy, however, regretted being unprepared for Foreman's powerful right-handed punch that Moorer had expected but failed to parry in the championship bout. Foreman wasn't just fighting for the title but was also battling to reclaim his life. As a result of his victory, Foreman faced his fears and shortcomings, which Teddy believes makes him greater than Mike Tyson.
