Are Fighters of the past Overrated?; Poll

Jimmy Young had good ring generalship though, he knew how to negotiate his way around the ring and use to his advantage, he was also a lot quicker than Lewis and better defensively.

Lewis would be favourite to win but its 60/40 fight imo. I can easily see Foreman winning.

It's not like Lewis was a bum compared to Foreman. He had good movement and his defense might be underrated.

I know, thats why i think it would be 60/40 in Lewis's favour because of the stylistic advantages he has, that said Lewis had poor ring generalship imo and i can easily see Foreman walking him down and hurting him, so there is no way im gonna make Lewis out to be a sure fire winner in this one.

It's all about if Foreman connects/Lewis tires out.

I think he was running out of stamina against Mavrovic and it's not like Mavrovic was putting much pressure on him.

It's a mistake to regard Mavrovic as a mediocre fighter. He wasn't.

Yes he could, he could knock Foreman out, he could also easily get knocked out himself, but you dont seem to want to grasp that.

All ive heard from you is how Foreman was to slow to lay a glove on Lewis and how he would! lose, that leads me to believe that you dont think he could knock Lewis out to win.

i did also post that i'd favour lewis to win 7 times out of 10, and the only way he'd win against lewis is by knockout

besides, foreman is strong but dont make it seem like as soon as he makes contact everything goes black, it'll still have to be a hard shot right on the chin
