I'm not in any way rubbishing the fact that you think Foreman would KO Wlad because I agree, but Wlad is a different fighter these days from the man who got floored 3 times by Sam Peter. If they were to rematch now I think Wlad would score a late KO without any trouble coming his way!
I also think Wlad would be a number on Peter, but it is also because Peter has slipped too. Wlad is just so cautious these days, he seems really scared to get hit. That might help him last longer against Foreman, but Foreman wouldn't be fighting the strange defensive fight that people keep producing against Wlad. Wlad has it pretty easy in this division, there are too many limited blobs stepping up for the payday. Nobody seems to be up for the fight.
