    Povetkin would easily outbox Foreman. Look what Axel Schultz did to Foreman..............

    For a round or two... until Big George plants Povetkin face first on the canvas.

    Foreman moving in almost slow motion and Povetkin's good chin pretty much guarantee a shutout victory for Povetkin.

    Foreman wouldn't be able to land clean, and even if he got lucky (unlikely but possible) he still wouldn't knock Povetkin out.

    Povetkin wins 120-108.

    Or the Foreman who lifted Bert Cooper clean off the canvas with a single body shot , making him quit from utter fear after only two rounds.

    Povetkin couldn't get past Tackams jab and was out fought by Huck.

    Povetkin is a come forward slugger. He doesn't fight any other way. Foreman would brutalize him. His power was too ferocious.

    Povetkin isn't tubby, have you seen how he looked in his last two fights? :patsch

    Povetkin schools that washed up old man, like anyone else good or decent did at that point...

    Whatever you say, Cooper was just a hard hitting journeyman who could be stopped by anyone really, he could give it but he certainly couldn't take it... Foreman lost to anyone good at that point in his career, 90's Foreman was a manufactured illusion. I think Povetkin outboxes him fairly easily, Morrison was able to outbox George over 12 and take his power... I think a prime Povetkin would be alright.
