prime george foreman versus prime vitali

[Johnny Rebel]

Vitali wins by late KO or by an easy decision over the "robotic" and slow Foreman.

[Burner]

This is a terrible matchup for Vitali.

Foreman by easy KO.

[knn]

Vitali is too big, strong, intelligent and technically sound for the dumb one dimensional Foreman.

Indeed.

Foreman I was too 1-dimensional (beating mainly bums, greens, dwarfs and natural cruisers). Was KDed by Jimmy Young.

Foreman II was too fat'n'slow. Was nearly beaten by Axel Schulz.

[Tmann400]

The 70ies are crap. Foreman is higher crap but Vitali would beat him up.

In case you don't remember: Featherfist Jimmy Young knocked Foreman down.

why do you spew all this bull**** about the 70s fighters sucking?!!...seriously dude get a grip..why do you hate and think 70s fighters suck so bad..and u claim ur neutral and u dont have a favorite fighter. yet everytime i see u in a thread it has something to do with the klitschkos

hes just another alt repeating himself,i wouldnt bother with his babble

[Owlzfan84]

prime george was to damn sloppy..vitali is to big and to strong

Also Vitali is very fundamental and he's pretty slick 2. I think Vitali takes it as well.

[RightCross94]

george by UD or late stoppage

[Tmann400]

o ok..you call joe frazier a bum?..you call ken norton a bum?..and even at the end of his career when he was in his mid forties..he knocked out michael moorer and you call moorer a bum?...he fought competively with evander holyfield for 12 rounds and stunned holyfield a few times..you call evander holyfield a bum?..yet you call people here dulusional..you are the delusional one my friend..get a grip and accept the 70s fighters..go talk about something else for once besides coming into these threads and spewing bull**** about "how overrated and how much 70s fighters ******"

I _am_ neutral, but I will defend nowadays heavies. And the Klitschkos happen to be the top heavies nowadays (= they are under the most vicious and deluded attacks). If this would be the 90ies then I would counter deluded fans who claim that "Foreman scores an easy KO against Lennox".

There is NOTHING in Foreman's career that hints at an easy KO against Vitali.

NOTHING, except if you compare Vitali with half-blind dwarfs (Frazier, 5'11'') or green cruisers (Dullaire, 185 lbs, 6-1) or featherfists (Levi Forte) or bums (Goodwin, 1-15).

There is not a single guy whom Foreman I has beaten that is comparable to Vitali:

• Ken Norton was 212lbs (lighter than Chris Byrd)
• Frazier was 5'11'' and half-blind (no wonder he didn't see the clubs coming)
• Kirkman was 203lbs
• Chuvalo was 6'0'' and 214
• Ron Lyle has only a 50%+ KOratio (against heavies).

THESE ARE THE GUYS YOU BASE YOUR OPINION ON? You gotta be kidding me.

205 lbs is the median KO-victim of Foreman I. You should know such facts before you fantasize about an easy win for Foreman. Wake up, the 70ies are over! Vitali would not shrink in the time machine.

Let me also repeat what I have already written: David Haye (6'3'') has approx. the same record as Foreman I

and is approx. as tall as Foreman (6'3.5''). We will see what happens when Haye clashes with either Klitschko. You should give Foreman as much chances (based on Foreman's and Haye's records) as you give David Haye.

I give Foreman a chance because I consider Foreman the best of the 70ies. But the chance is less than 25%. Maybe it would look something like Vitali vs Danny Williams, except that Danny Williams was 25lbs heavier than Foreman I. You could see Foreman flying to the left and right as soon as Vitali connects with shots Foreman has never felt before.

Foreman would have equally low chances against Wladimir Klitschko as I wrote at

I could have taken your post as credible until you compared George Foreman to Danny Williams.
