1991 George Foreman vs todays David Haye

[LacedUp]

Holyfield fought James Tillis in his first fight moving up from Cruiserweight.

Bonin? LOL....dude was some fat doorman from Poland

He was so shit.

Even as I mentioned, Huck went up to fight Povetkin and that's recent!

If Morrison beat that George, so could Haye. He is elusive when he wants to be.

[Gods We Faked]

Haye loses a UD after averaging 17 punches a a round and later blames his poor performance on an abscess on his left ass cheek.

He didn't beat that George though.

When Haye fought Bonin, Bonin was 41-2 (excellent record), much bigger than Haye who'se it was his first ever fight at HW. Bonin, won his first 26 fights at HW as well. Bonin was also ranked 11th, again not bad for Haye's first HW fight.

Show me an opponent as good as Bonin that ANY other boxer has ever stepped up to HW to fight?

And Haye knocked that guys block off.

You guys, seriously, I am not even a Haye fan, dislike him really but facts are facts..

Haye smashes the **** out of dudes no matter how big or how good they are really.

And you are trying to lower him to below the level of a crude slugger like Foreman! Try harder!

When did Haye EVER have trouble with a crude slugger? Never!

wow. foreman was a much more intelligent boxer than you ever give him credit for. he wasnt just a crude slugger,, there were subtle things he did in the ring that seems to go unnoticed by many. there's no way in hell haye could handle foreman's pressure over 12 rounds and haye wasnt a busy enough fighter like holyfield to out work george

why is everyone comparing the foreman morrsion fought to the holyfield fight? george was much quicker and more energetic against holyfield which happened 2.5 years earlier. foreman wasnt the same after that fight and slowed considerably after that. plus morrison hit like a mule so foreman had to be more careful and cautious than he would be against the lighter hitting haye. dont get me wrong,,,haye has big power and can crack but he doesnt have the same one punch pop and heavy hands as morrison had

Foreman 1991 vs Haye actually would be a great fight. I bet Haye would fight Foreman like he did against Valuev or like Morrison did against Foreman. Haye wouldn't take many risks and may escape with a unanimous decision but Foreman still had that power and decent speed so you never know.

Yes, a Haye UD is say 80% most likely, a shock Foreman KO would have 20% chance something like that.

Fact is if this fight was made, Foreman would have been the 4:1 underdog because book keepers don't listen to rubbish like this, they do real an analysis because its money involved.

He was subtle and crafty, granted. But Holyfield and Morrison managed to pull it off, as if Haye couldn't. Haye's style is perfect to UD Foreman, even rock him!

And Foreman if I recall basically lost against every great opponent he ever fought di he not?

No he didn't at all.

No he didn't at all.

Muhammad Ali - LOST
Ron Lyle - WON, but could have gone the other way very easily, basically an uncoordinated slugfest.
Jimmy Young (only somewhat decent) - LOST
Evander Holyfield - LOST
Tommy Morrison - LOST
Michael Moorer - WON, But got the living **** punched out of him and half won through nothing more than Moorers own ******ity.
Axel Schultz - WON, but really, he LOST! lol
Shannon Briggs - LOST, except I acknowledge Foreman could have received this decision just as easily, but then again, Briggs was never really that good anyway.

What other decent, relevant opponents were there?
