    Prime Foreman simply has too much power and size over a valiant Holyfield. Assuming that he would not have punched himself out as he did against Ali, Foreman would grind to a late stoppage by bludgeoning Evander into submission after falling behind on the cards. I see this as the ref stopping the fight, rather than Evander being KO'd for a ten count?

    My heart said Evander, but logic made me choose George.

    Vander's Heart make him an all time great, but i don't think his heart will get him the win in this one. The results will be the same as the times he lost to Bowe but worst. George "always smiling" Foreman wins this one by 7th round knockout.

    The decider in this fight for me.....Stamina.....Evander can keep George to tire himself out....HF then takes over...Evander wins it

    George Foreman was an animal who brushed aside Frazier and Norton. The Foreman vs Lyle fight is one of the best gunslinging contests I've ever seen - Brutal!.

    The old Foreman went 12 rounds with Holyfield but this version wouldn't as he'd most likely stop a brave Holyfield in the middle rounds.

    Well the old Foreman managed to win 4 rounds against prime Holyfield i think it would be a brawl and he would floor Holyfield but Holyfield would go the distance it would be similar to Bowe vs Holyfield 1 with Holyfield having his moment but being over powered.

    I agree. It would be a cracking fight. Foreman still had his power at the age he fought Evander and couldn't knock him out, thouhg the younger version would land more often, prime Holyfield was one of the toughest Heavyweights ever.

    Wouldn't rule out Foreman wearing himself out either giving Holy a chance in the later rounds.

    I think Holyfield would get past the early barrage and fight back but loose a close decision to George, just.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
