    Oh come on. He was out on his feet here. Had the ref not stopped the fight he would have been flat on his back KO'd. It's ok not being KO'd off shite in 4 rounders but there is not a chance he would last more than a round against an elite HW boxer with supreme power like Foreman.

    Honestly, I don't think Butterbean would have gone a full round against anybody, regardless of weight, that wasn't afraid of him. I may be wrong but I can't recall ever seeing him take a punch that it didn't at least shake him. Nearly decapitated that wrestler on a WWF ppv.

    Ali could have pummeled him for four rounds and I'm not so sure he'd wouldn't be still standing. There were HW's that pretty much did, but had to be very careful cause if he hits them with his weight behind it, they were going down. His size commands respect. George would not have been immune. I'm am in no way saying he'd win but George's ain't no giant so he couldn't just rush in. It would have to be a timed shot. I'm just saying I'd like to have seen it.

    A stoppage is basically almost the equivalent of a ko. Eventually the fighter being stopped would have been ko brutally if it wasn't intervene. To even argue this is asinine.



    Who here is willing to argue that Margarito wouldn't have been ko by Mosley if it wasn't stopped by the ref while Margo was taking massive power punches?
