    Interesting fight because Jones would lite him up way worse than Holyfield. We know Foreman ain't going down, question is could Foreman score that KO blow, he was a wily bastard at that point in his career.

    Actually a hard pick. I'd pick Jones, but he would need a perfect fight.

      If I had to pick.....

      I'd trust George to line up that fight ending blow more than I'd bank on Roy to play cat and mouse for 36 minutes.

        Roy avoided punchers for a reason.

        If he fought Foreman I'd fear for Roys life.

                Is nobody taking into account that Moorer was lighting Foreman up until he got caught? Roy was much faster and much more elusive than Moorer and George would have had real trouble catching up to him. At that point Roy was making 160lb fighters look like they were fighting underwater and we're talking about a man who couldnt catch up to Ali 20yrs prior Roy has more than a decent chance in this fight.

                  I'd like to see them fight 3 times......

                  RJJ wins 2 out of 3,with Foreman catching him in one of the fights.

                  I couldn't pick a winner in just one fight.RJJ wins most of the rounds in all 3 fights,but gets caught in one of the fights.

                    Hard to say. Foreman had a pretty good jab in his comeback. Not quite sure about the 45 year old version that beat Moorer, as Mack said, Michael was winning just about every round of that one. I was thinking more along the lines of the 40 year old that demolished Cooney.

                    Roy was smart to avoid Lennox, though, and move back down rather than defend against his mandatory, Vitali.
