I'd favor nobody over prime 72'-77' George from that era, save for Louis himself.
Best chance to drag him into the tired and frustrated zone before Foreman lowered the boom would probably belong to Roy Lazer, Bob Pastor, Nathan Mann, Ezzard Charles and Jimmy Bivins. But I doubt them. Foreman is my pick for best heavyweight of the post-Ali Era(s), and for allot of good reasons.
.....And a shout out to moneytheman, who likely doesn't know that Jimmy Young fought allot more like a 1930s n' 40s fighter than he did a 21st century one.
Walcott might frustrate George for a while ,but the Big Fella was adept at cutting the ring,and likely corners Jersey Joe for the coup de grace at some point.
