Bowe vs Foreman

And Moorer, Cooney, Lyle, Schultz, Savarese ...

Ummm ... because he gassed himself out putting an unholy beating on Ali?

I'd say not. Golota (who never went on to do much of anything) dropped Bowe with ease. Holyfield dropped Bowe. He couldn't drop Foreman. OLD Foreman.

Foreman had the better chin.

 

great post

 

I don't often agree with you, but in this case we are on the same page.

It seems obvious to me Foreman > Bowe.

I think this thread backfired a bit on Ticar

Anyway, I don't really like Bowe, so I'll admit it and bow out of the thread. I don't want to be a Dino.

 

Coetzer didn't win a round and his face was pounded into mince meat before any low blow was connected in the 7th round - and which was clearly accidental having decided to switch his attack to his body.

Foreman would also turn his attention to Coetzer's body due to his shots having no effect on Coetzers iron dome.

Bowe battered Coetzer. The low blow had nothing to do with it.

 

lol you are horrible, holyfield came and brawled with him and even pushed him back at 205lbs!! you didnt see him try and do that with even an old foreman, if holy fought foreman like he fought bowe, foreman would have beat him as well. foreman pushed everyone else back, bowe was getting pushed back by holyfield. Old foreman was equally polished as bowe look at their respective performances vs coetzer. better chin? lmao, getting easily dropped by golota and almost knocked out with one punch by an old holyfield who was having sme sort of BAD medical issue.
Bowe's defense was poo and his stamina was mediocre.
Bowe was just the first decent real SHW nothing else.

 

I would give Foreman the edge.But man,prime Bowe is difficult for anybody to beat

 

He was actually pretty solid at 226, when he was 19.

Bowe has the best stamina I've ever seen from a 230+ pound fighter.

 

for a 230+ fighter it wasnt bad but it wasnt even really better than 48 year old foreman that fought savarese and briggs

 

Bowe had incredible stamina and Foreman had mediocre stamina and terrible pacing issues. Nobody is questioning that. But the difference in size between the two is negligible.

Foreman actually tried to slim down to the least possible weight he could, often coming into fights dehydrated (this is documented) which may have been a reason for his stamina issues.

Foreman was massive. As a teenager he was rock solid at 226. This is insane. Even the Klits were in the low 200s at that age. No doubt he was a freak of nature and maybe the strongest heavy ever.

 

Yes and Foreman has a problem with any big top class heavy that he cant get out of there early.
