    Who else could take a 74 Foreman.

    I think Ali is one of the VERY few people, if not the only person that could take out Foreman.

    Ali
    And possibly Joe Louis.

    Anyone else got some ideas.

    Anyone with speed, some power and balls. Foreman of any era was a big goofy mummy with tons of power.

    1. Ali would beat him 10 times out of 10.
    2. Tyson would rock him. Foremans too slow and had absolutely no defensive skills, he would never be able to cath tyson first.
    3. Lennox Lewis - Lewis = bigger, stronger, faster, smarter, better defense. Foreman would be the one getting bullied in this fight.
    4. Joe Louis, i dont need to say anymore do I?
    5. Evander Holyfield - not getting knocked out, and too much heart, Foreman gets frustrated when he cant put him down.
    6. I know theres a good chance that absolutely noone is going to agree with this but i also believe that Roy jones at Heavy would be able to decision Foreman. He'd be too quick for foreman ever to catch him, i mean its not like George was the most accurate of punchers.

    Im sure theres some people who think im rediculous but i just dont see how George foreman was so great, he was beatable in so many ways. Yes he had a great career, makes for a great story but if you match him up against the other heavyweight greats there arent too many that he matches up well with. He was basically a bigger slower tyson. If his opponent wasnt afraid of him then he was gonna have a tough time beating them.

      LOL!

      What a load of ****. You think Tyson would beat Foreman??!? Tyson was **** scared of an old Foreman and his trainer Cus said he wouldn't stand a chance against him. You think Lennox Lewis is stronger than Foreman, now you really are losing it. Lewis had a terrible chin.

      Lewis and Tyson would both fall in less than 3.

      Joes louis was too small.

      And old George Foreman went the distance with a young Holyfield, somthing Tyson couldn't do. If Holy couldn't have a convincing win over an old Foreman, what chance does he have against young prime Foreman?

      Roy Jones? Thats the worst of your predictions. Foreman was surprisingly speedy in his youth. You picked the wrost possible people to fight Foreman. You say he had bad defense? He wa sonly KO'd once in his long career.

        lmao what!!!!!

        this has to be a joke
        foreman would beat everyone of them except ali
        the only one who would last longer than 3 rounds is holyfield
        and he would still get tko'd in about 5

                    Yeah, seeing as how an old former Light Heavyweight by the name of Gregorio Peralta gave Foreman a couple of very difficult battles, and also considering how Jimmy Young actually beat Foreman, if you're a fairly talented Heavyweight that has an element of fighting smarts to go along with a tricky defensive style then you can make Foreman look bad and stand a good chance of beating him...The guy ain't superman, you know, and like every other fighter in history there is a certain style that has proven to always given him troubles.
