Who could beat a prime George Foreman?

[Yogi]

I want to ask you a question. Where do you rank larry holmes among the all time great heavyweights and why.

Oh, I don't know exactly, because I don't keep an all-time list, but probably around the 5th spot, I think.

He beat 27 guys that were ranked contenders at one point in thier career, most guys are lucky to beat 10. Rocky only beat like 10.

Theres more to boxing than numbers.

Ali also ducked Quarry.

Everybody ducked Quarry.

Dude norton was 30 when he first became a somebody. 1973-1978 were the best years of ken's career. Larry will always be Ali's #1 student.

Foreman vs Young.
How can people say it would have been diffirent if Foreman came right at him with his dirty tactics like few years before this, when he had no heart? He obviously came right at Young here and couldn't finish him, despite having the heart to keep trying. The Foreman that fought Frazier etc would have been ko'd. Jimmy Young would and has beaten a prime George Foreman.

I'll have to disagree.
