    I think this is one fight where George II would have a better shot than George I.


    Either way, though, I think Lennox wins.

    I think Lennox Lewis would win by UD. However, there is indeed a chance that Foreman would KO Lewis.

    220 lbs Foreman vs. 240 lbs Lewis. Lewis is taller, faster, hits harder, technically better in *ALL* departments. I mean seriously, what is there to be debated here?

    Yeah, I could see it going either way. I could also see Big George getting TKOd late due to accumulation/exhaustion, but if he landed a big shot flush on Lennox's chin at any point the fight would be over.

    Foreman hits harder and got a more solid chin, but Lewis is indeed taller and faster and more technical. Those differences makes it such an interesting match, not a no-go.

    Lewis by UD. He has an advantage in everything but power.

    Is that why featherfists Ali sparked him?

    No, George was clearly exhausted from swinging away non stop for seven rounds trying to get Ali out of there. He wasn't sparked and Ali wasn't featherfisted either... He just didn't go in there looking to slug it out.
