    I don't see anything about Joshua that leads me to believe he'd trouble a prime Foreman. He's a little bigger and has a longer reach but Foreman in his prime destroyed a Hall of Famer like Joe Frazier. Nothing Joshua has shown makes me believe he'd be a threat.

      Dude, even your fellow Brits call George Foreman the hardest puncher of all-time.

        Foreman could take a better shot when he later came back. But he was slow as hell and rooted to one spot.

        AJ beats the daylights out of both versions. Morrison dominated him and looked like a highly skilled fighter in comparison.

        Foreman wouldn't get close to landing on AJ with his badly telegraphed swinging shots. Straight down the line and falling for any kind of faint is getting Foreman blown away. behave yourself.
        Apparently, Joe Frazier couldn't handle his shots but sure Joshua would. Foreman wasn't the most skilled fighter but Joshua is no Ali or Fury himself. Foreman could take shots from hard hitters in both era but Joshua beats the daylights out of him?

        Joshua couldn't even trade with a little fat Mexican. We know they cannot fight, so everything is hypothetical. But one thing can definitely be compared for real...let's see if Joshua can become a HW champ at age 45.

            Id pick Foreman 2.0 before young George. He could be patient if he had to be and not get flustered. If AJ just sat back and boxed I could see him winning but if he sat in Georges range too long he would get KOed.

                Honestly Joshua probably KTFO him

                I don't really care to see clips of "Big George" clubbing out cruiserweights who had day jobs, it doesn't impress me.

                "Big George" would be little George in there and I think outside of Chin Joshua has every advantage.

                I don't even think Foreman would beat guys like Hrgovic or that French guy, and he'd go life and death with Michael Hunter

                  Yeah like he "literally" killed all those bum cruiserweights he fought right?

                  Get real

                  Truth of it is you could scoop up almost all of Foreman opponents and put them in with Luis Ortiz or current old ass Povetkin and they'd all get brutally ktfo early rounds by those guys too.

                  People are way too easily impressed by dudes who boxed on black and white tv

                    George could take AJs shots. The reverse is not true and AJ will gas before a young Foreman who fought in the 15rd era so AJ ain't gonna' beat George like he he beat vato fatso the second time out. Big George KO7 AJ
