      I honestly don't know if there could ever be a worse opponent for Wladimir Klitschko. George Foreman is easily the strongest heavyweight champion ever. He had one punch power and a granite chin. Both of these guys have stamina problems, but Klitschko's stamina seems to be concurrent with the pressure that a fighter puts on him. I think it would take alot of holding to survive Foreman, but if he somehow got through it, he would be dead tired and his legs would just give out from the mental stress. I honestly cant imagine Klitschko surviving.

          It could be either fighter within 3 rounds. You have to remember that the likes of Tommy Morrison outpointed George by hitting and moving away, much like Wlad did against Samuel Peter. He survived.

          Samuel Peter reminds me of a young Foreman. Foreman was really an awkward fighter when he was young, he was very amateurish, just watch some clips. Muhammad called him the "mummy" for a reason.

          When George was older, he was technically much better, but he was slow as molasses. Wlad is very quick for a big man. He has deceptively quick hands. Just ask Chris Byrd.

          Young Foreman vs. Wlad would be a toss up for the first 3 rounds. After that, I give the nod to George because his stamina is better than Wlad's.

          Actually, I believe that Wlad would unanimous decision an old George Foreman most of the time.

          However, if old George gets one big right hand in, it's over at any time.
          I agree with the prime foreman analysis but I dont think wlad would have survived a young foreman. the old foreman was smarter but just much too slow for wlad. if he couldnt knockout morrison or savareese he sure as hell wouldnt have beaten wlad

            could go either wayagainst an old foreman, wlad by ud ore big george by ko.

            young george storms out and clubs wlad down, i dont see wlad being able to hold the beast called foreman
