    He'd be no such thing.

    He'd get beat by gatekeepers like Luis Ortiz and realize he needed to trim 12lb off and go to cruiser

    Where he'd lose to Bredis, gassiev etc

      Foreman is naturally much more robust than Usyk.

      Usyk doesn't fight like a Pep or Whitaker. He gets tagged and bullied by men weaker and less explosive than Foreman.

      Usyk is an ATG. P4P he's lightyears better than Foreman. But George is too athletic and rugged for Usyk.

      Maybe i'll change my tune in a few years.
      Dude prime Foreman was 215-220lbs in weight which is the same as Usyk.
      Also I'm in college currently and I box for my college, I don't "play" any sport. Also I'm studying pharmacology so knowing human physiology is central to my studies so poor choice of words. Foreman was big relative to his time. He'd be a small heavyweight nowadays.

          I've seen these guys claim 215lb Foreman was "as big" as the klitschkos and Lennox Lewis who were all 245lb.

          It's like they don't understand logic, Foreman was in the low 220s max in his prime and he was muscled up at that weight.

          When he was old and fat with a gut on him he was 240s

          Usyk was the weight of prime Foreman in his last fight and he still looked lean, he was certainly lower body fat than a prime Foreman and he had less muscle on his frame also.

          Usyk would have to gain 10 lbs of muscle AND 10lbs of fat, and then he'd have a body that looked like a prime Foreman, at 235lbs. Again, Foreman was 210 to 220.

          That means Usyk is naturally at least as big as Foreman if not bigger.

          It's like human anatomy goes out the window when it comes to these old school fighters

            You will soon pipe down, after Usyk's next fight.

            All these threads will become less frequent.

            Usyk is overrated.

                    Did you used to be prima Donna Kool? If so I liked your Audley thread back in the day

                    Anyway, time will tell, Usyk is unproven at heavyweight but I think he will cause problems.

                    Ironically I think Chisora may prove more of a tough fight for him than some of the bigger more cumbersome guys as I think Usyk may underestimate Chisora
