    39 year old George Foreman versus present Vitali Klitshcko

    This is Foreman approx 1 year after his comeback. He knocked out Dwight Muhammad Qawi in the 7th round this year, coming in at 235lbs.

    I say Foreman will stop Vitali in the 9th round after a hard battle.

    I don't think he was ready yet. I would rather the Foreman who stopped Moorer or, at earliest, the Foreman who took on Holyfield.

      Cooney was Vitali's height.

        Vitali could jab and move his way to victory, this foreman stalked, but did so slowly, and lacked a killer instinct.

        I think it'd be a fight that you know at any second george could win, and i think george would be landing some killer shots, but vitali would outwork him and win a decision.

          I think Foreman would win, but not easily like he did against Cooney who was well on the slide by then. Nevertheless, Gerry landed some good punches and Foreman just kept coming forward like a big truck. I'd say the current version of Vitaly doesn't hit any harder than Cooney but would be stronger and more durable..

          My guess is that Big George wins a gruelling fight on a close decision or late late stoppage with both fighters looking much the worse for wear.

              I think the two of them would make for a good fight, I agree it would be a hard battle. I think the long lay off of Forman's makes a difference and Vitali wins.

                Cooney may not have been the best but it always took a world-class fighter to take him down. Far from a pushover.

                  Very true, and i think the Cooney who fought Holmes and Norton would've lasted into the later rounds with Foreman.

                    Let me tell you all something. Foreman would slap this **** around like most men do their wives.
