Who does better against 70's Foreman? Tyson, Lewis, Bowe or Holyfield?

I like Holy's chances.
He has the skill, stamina and toughness required to survive Foreman's initial onslaught and drag him into deep water.

Lewis also could pull an upset, you never know.

Tyson and Bowe won’t last past the early rounds.

 

How do you see it working out for mike?

 

Style wise Lewis does the best but hes a tad more vulnerable in chin department so theres always a danger he could be chinned.

Holyfield has the durability and skills but he often likes to slug it out, I see Holyfield doing well until he gets lured into a brawl and then that's all she wrote.

Bowe gets hit far too much and likes to slug it out on the inside instead of using his height and reach, that was able to work vs the likes of Holyfield who isn't a big puncher but we are talking about Foreman here......

Tyson doesn't know how to fight on the back foot and style wise he doesn't match up well vs Foreman.

So overall I would say Lewis has the best chance unless he gets chinned, with Holyfield at 2nd who does well vs Foreman until he starts brawling too much.

 

His chin was definitely better than Lewis's imo, and I'd compare it favorably against Bowe when factoring in the Golota fights.

 

I didn't say it would work out for Mike I said he would have the best chance. Again it's a combo of speed explosiveness power and footwork. By footwork it would be his angles not necessarily his forward movement. Young George liked to stick both his arms out to block shots and for me that's a potential recipe for disaster here as Mike could change angles on a dime and unload a good 3 peice befor George has a chance to even reset. It's why I said the first couple rds could be very explosive.

 

Yes now that I gave it more thought his chin most likely is better than Lewis. I personally give Lewis 0 chance against George.

 

1. STEWARD Lewis
2. Holyfield
3. Tyson
4. Bowe (he's not proven enough against punchers, and I'm not thrilled with his release against Golota)

 

Didn’t golota nut shot bowe?

 

It's not like Bowe wasn't guilty of that himself see the Coetzer fight.

 

Tyson has the best chin

 

Assuming that Evander fights correctly against George Foreman, then I will go with Evander Holyfield. The Boxer/Puncher, Holyfield, needs to come in as the Boxer, against the Slugger, Foreman. If he starts off trying to slug with Foreman, then no.

 

I favour all 4 to beat him.
Lewis hits harder (with his right at least) , so he more than has the power to keep Foreman at bay. He also has a reach advantage, a great jab and is skilled enough to smother Foreman when he gets close. Lewis won't take risks and wins on points.
Tyson does not have a stylistic disadvantage as you claimed. He's not the classic swarmer, he's more of a great counter puncher with swarming accents. Tyson KO'd Foreman inside 3 rounds. He's way too fast and accurate with his punching, and Foreman was slow as ****. He'd easily outland Foreman and finish him with a combo. Also, Tyson has a good enough chin to withstand a few blows to get close enough to unleash his.
Holyfield probably wins on points in a very hard match. But he also might loose.
Bowe lands more and wins on points.

 

Tyson is strong enough to withstand those tactics

 

Nether of our statements contradicts the other.

You make a good point. Wouldn’t you say George’s guard manipulation might end up slowing tyson down?

 

You certain? Holyfield was able to overpower and puch back tyson in their matches. I don’t think evander is as strong as George.
