If anyone wants to see what an absolute menace he was in his prime, this is a great documentary (and a great YouTube channel rabbit-hole--fantastic production).
The shot that always sticks with me is George's trainer trying his best to hold onto the already-heavy heavy bag, while George knocked the bag AND the trainer around with every punch.
