        If he did not knock him out, he would have beat him on points.
        HE was already leading on points on route to decision Foreman.

          he wasnt winning at all. he was down a good round or two. the rounds he won and lost were pretty clear to me.

          i think he woulda lost a decision if he hadnt knocked him out, everyone scores fights differently

                That's speculation, you can't say that'd definately happen.

                  If Tyson didnt lose to Doulass, he wouldve beaten holyfield blabla. I dont understand why people give foreman these excuses.

                  Anyway, I think Jimmy Young would have been the man. If not, then probably Holmes.

                    Larry Holmes,

                    Foreman was declining not physically but in terms of preparing for fights

                    so by 77 78 holmes chin, jab, ring generalship would have done it
