Re: Could prime Foreman have beaten Wladimir?
Wlad is a big, strong, well conditioned guy with good technique ..... but he fights the same way all the time and his punch resistance is very poor.
I think that Wlad would have outpointed the old, fat George ..... just pumped out the jab for 12 rounds and kept George off balance with a few straight rights to keep his guessing.
Young Foreman is a different matter altogether, a big, strong bully with a truly vicious temperament. Young Foreman would have jumped on Wlad from the first bell, he would have the centre of the ring and he would be pushing Wlad backwards. Young Foreman was a monstrous hitter, he could hit your arms and damage them!
IMO .... Young Prime Foreman ambushes Wlad from the very first bell, I see a Frazier type fight here but I'm not sure Wlad would get up as many times as Smokin Joe did.
