    How would Fury and Wilder fare against a 70s or 90s Foreman?

    And by the way, if you haven't seen his new documentary on EPIX while quarantined you should definitely watch it.

    I doubt either of them has the chin to take on big George.

    We've seen Wilder get knocked out by Fury and Fury get put on the canvas by Pajkic, Cunningham, and Wilder twice.

      Fury would beat him with ease.

        No doubt man. Just rewatched Foreman/Frazier on ESPN + and those thudding sledgehammers he was landing on Frazier...SHEESH

          Wilder would lose to both versions of Foreman. He doesn't have the boxing skills to stay away from him, and George is always coming forward, which makes it hard for Wilder to get that long runway he needs for the big right. I say Foreman ****s that long body with some big hooks and KOs the Bronze Bomber.

          Fury has a good chance to beat him, with his long jab and mobility. Young Foreman could gas out, which could give Fury a late KO chance. He probably UDs 90s Foreman. But that's just "odds" are - even the guys that beat Foreman in the 90s were utterly exhausted by the effort and ate dozens of "telephone pole" jabs.
