    Foreman in 5. If McCall and Rahman can take Lewis out (with one punch!) and Bruno and Briggs rattled him, Big George would have no trouble. Lewis is in my top ten heavies but styles make fights

      Foreman would kill him. Even old Foreman might kill him. The guy was an animal.

            Lewis by ko he would use his reach and one set up the big left. Lewis by ko no doubt. Lewis boxing skills are to good for Foreman to overcome.

              hmm

              Lewis' boxing skills are not too big of a threat for Foreman to overcome, not by a mile. Foreman was crushing Ali until he gassed out. Ali is twice the boxer Lewis ever dreamed of being. Lewis is a top 10 all-timer, but Foreman is better and that's a fact, Jack. Foreman would stop Lewis. Lewis would not withstand that onslaught.

                Ali used no boxing skills in the rumble in the jungle. We're talking about Prime Lewis at his best vs. Prime Foreman at his best.

                  Ali didn't use boxing skills because he couldn't. He did what he had to do to deal with Foreman. If Ali couldn't do it, Lewis wouldn't do it. Eventually, Foreman would hurt Lewis. Klitschko hurt Lewis, Mercer hurt Lewis, Rahman hurt Lewis, McCall hurt Lewis...and all of these fighters are lesser men than PRIME George Foreman.

                  The only difference is, with Foreman, once he has you hurt you will never recover on him.

                    I remember when Bruno was winning every round against Lewis before Lewis pulled out a lucky punch. And Bruno is certainly no Prime Foreman

                      Like Lewis would come into a fight with Foreman in the bull**** condition he went into some of those fights. He would be focused.

                      Super Lightweight, I'm not too sure what you're trying to say in the first couple of lines in your last post.
