    I picked the 'FRAZIER beats Holmes, FOREMAN beats Frazier, HOLMES beats Foreman' option.

    I think Holmes has the best chance of coming up with two wins.

    Foreman beats Frazier

    Holmes beats Foreman

    Holmes beats Frazier


    I'm not married to any of those picks, although I'm most confident about the Foreman vs Frazier (obviously).

    Fifteen rounds,I take it ?


    Frazier comes from behind to overhaul Holmes on points. Tough and close bout.


    Foreman blasts Frazier out within five rounds.


    Like Muhammad Ali,Holmes probably has a less tough time with Foreman than he does Frazier. I see Larry,after surviving a few scary moments early on,wearing George down and stopping him late or taking a clear decision. I say this with one reservation,though. If Foreman catches Holmes with a similar shot to the one Earnie Shavers did,then George takes it. He would n't let Holmes off the hook.

    Holmes jab movement and durability see him outbox Foreman, maybe with a few tough moments but a clear UD or maybe even a late stoppage. Holmes beats Frazier too but gets pushed all the way. As we know Foreman has Frazier's number
