If he beats Dawson it will be increadibly impressive. He would have beaten Pascal and Dawson. The other two guys in the top three of the devision. He would be the number 1 ranked light heavyweight in the world at the age of 47. Im not sure of this but was Forman ranked number 1 when he won his title at that age or did he just beat one guy for the title and then go.
I don't think Foreman was even rated, as he was coming of the loss to Morrison, who then got starched by Bentt, plus he hadn't fought in a year
