    shot spriritually ..but imagine if you put the mind of the 45 year old foreman in the body of the 30 year old foreman or even a 35 year old hard trained foreman

      Foreman KO5 after a pretty even affair up until the fourth, were Mike can't stand anymore of Big George's punishment and can't recover to the fifth and gets knocked down and out early round 5.

          The young Big George would have destroyed Tyson. did you see when he was uppercutting Joe Frazier and almost lifting him off the matt ala "ring king" The old video game. Tyson hit hard but nothing like George Foreman.

            Tyson has nothing for Big George. Foreman by TKO inside of 5 in a high action slugfest.

              The Wolverines suck.
              With that said. My Boy Tyson would overwhelm Foreman with his speed and accuracy.

                Foreman was a wild puncher, and Tyson destroyed wild punchers with counterpunching. Tyson wins by KO.

                    Tyson destroys wild punches like he destroyed Douglas right?
                    Foreman in less than 3 and after the fight Tyson would tell him he loved Foreman juts like Tyson did Lewis.

                      It's hard to counterpunch what you can't reach. Holy nailed Tyson on his way in all night. Foreman is taller than Holy (about as tall as Douglas), has a longer reach than Holy, and hits a lot harder than Holy. IMO, it's either a late stoppage or UD for big George. I think after Tyson eats a few of those long uppercuts, he stays on the outside and covers up like he did against Lewis. Either that or he goes for it and sleeps lol
