George Foreman vs Wladimir Klitschko

Well it better be sooner, as George will be blowing out of his arse and looking on the verge of collapse from his own hit & miss exertions after a few rounds, especially against a fighter so much heavier, who'd lean on him, clutch him, grab him- and had just about the most accurate jab of all the heavyweight champs.

 

So one guy gets excuses and the other guy gets assigned a 30 fight “prime.”

 

70s Foreman didn’t have late power.

 

He wouldn't need to he could stop Wladimir in the first 6 rounds its very possible.

 

To quote Jammin' Jimmy Young before the 'Schooling in San Juan':

"I guarantee you that before the end of the 3rd round you're going to hear some boos because Foreman is going to lose his head. He's going to get frustrated and do something dirty. You'll be able to determine in your own mind after the 5th round who's going to win."


Ali too said something similar:

"I admit he hits hard but if a man can stay out of the way for 5 rounds, stick him, move, stay out of range, be in good shape – he’ll retire George Foreman. This man depends on getting his man in the first one or two rounds. If he don’t do that, he’s frustrated".

 

Why, did it say on GB News that it wasn't?

 

I believe the term oxymoron applies to that statement.

How about this , produce 5 fights that prove WK had the "most accurate jab of all the heavyweight champs" LOL

 

How about this, you pick someone to compare and get 5 fights? I bet its thisclose 'whoever' is is? Also you left the 'just about' out of my comment, so well done there.

 

He couldn't keep walking stump Sam Peter at the end of his jab. . Silly boy

 

Lol. How convenient. So the 28 year old 40+ fight wlad WITH Manny steward in his corner wasn’t prime ? That’s funny. And when did wlad ever retire and come back ?? Are you seriously going to compare HIS so called come back to a man who took TEN years off from the ring then fought for another TEN years and became the oldest heavyweight champion of all time ? I can see arguments favoring Wladimir Klitschko over George but your angles on this subject are hilarious

 

Unmissable? Foreman was really a much better boxer than you make him out to be. Foreman was rarely able to be hurt or hit due to his reach advantage and positioning.

 

His jab dominating the rematch with ruthless efficiency, of course. Who said Foreman wouldn't have his moments? I certainly haven't. Peter did- and apart from the knockdowns- lost virtually every other round. George may enjoy similar success.

 

Thats an inaccurate description because he couldn't keep a much worse version of Peters at the end of hs jab either
