    Default How would the Foreman of the 90s do against todays HW?

    Foreman was one of the best HW of the 90s and the 90s was one of the best eras for the HWs.


    So how would Big George do against the bums...Imean fighters of today.

    Hard to say,he almost proved a plodding style would work,and he had a huge punch.
    I can see anyone giving him major problems,but I could see a couple of good fights in there

    Without getting too into it we always have to remember one thing with George....He can change the scene of the big men with just one punch even if he is getting his ass kicked!!!!....

    They say power is the last thing to go....I always wanted to see Georges prime power against today's crop!!!!! They would lay down like bowling pins....

    George Foreman vs Mike Tyson = Foreman by KO early Tyson didn't have the head movement in the 90s, so this would basically beat a repeat of Foreman vs Frazier the 2nd fight.

    George Foreman vs Evander Holyfield = Well we see what happened when the older Foreman went up against a prime Holyfield. And i think Foreman won 4 rounds and he hurt Holyfield badly in spots. I see the fight going similar with Holyfield outboxing Foreman, but this time when Foreman hurts Holyfield he finishes him off round about the 8th round.

    George Foreman vs Riddick Bowe = Tough one but i don't think Riddick Bowe fared too well against, Heavyweights who were as big as him. See Tony Tubbs, Tyrell Biggs, Andrew Golota. They all gave Riddick Bowe trouble and i don't think Riddick Bowe's chin was that solid either, plus he liked to fight on the inside, which would be suicidial against Foreman, i see Foreman stopping Bowe in 6.

    George Foreman vs Lennox Lewis = Lennox Lewis would have the best chance against Foreman, style wise he is a nightmare for Foreman. And i can see Lewis giving Foreman a boxing lesson over 12 rounds, but i can also see Lewis losing his concentration which he often did at times. And i see Foreman laying out Lewis while behind on points. Tough one to call could go either way.

    Whoops i misread the title i thought it said Foreman vs the 90s Heavyweights my bad. But anyway Vitali and Wladimir would be the worst style match up for Foreman, but i see Foreman stopping Vitali in 7 and Wladimir in 3. All the other Heavyweights get crushed no question.
