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

Evander was roided to the gills and that wasn't a prime Tyson. Plus, Tyson didn't even attempt to win a pushing/shoving match, his aim was to to land punches.
Same against Foreman, Tyson won't try to wrestle George, he'll just use movement and speed to land.

 

Potentially ALL beat him.............

The "Myth" of 70's Foreman, the biggest puncher and strongest Fighter that has ever lived according to Forum gospel........

Foreman's rep comes from waxing a so so chinned Norton who always froze when meeting a puncher...........Norton was ko'ed several times.

Then comes weak chinned Frazier who was steered clear of ANY puncher until he met Foreman twice and was literally rag dolled like a kid. Now Frazier's claim to fame is getting by a rusty post exile no legs Ali who consequently beat him twice afterwards...another Forum myth, FOTC Frazier who only lived for one fight ........

The biggest Puncher that has ever lived, according to the Boxing Gods on a obscure Forum was absolutely man handled by a borderline washed up Ali , never won a around and was unceremoniously stopped.

Then borderline Journeyman Lyle who lost to absolute Palookas thru his career came within a inch of stopping the Biggest Puncher and strongest fighter that has ever lived..............

Here comes now Pillow fist extraordinaire Young and defuses the hardest Puncher and strongest fighter that has ever lived, even knocked him down, made him see Jesus and forced him to quit for a decade.

That in a nutshell is "70's" Foreman, the biggest puncher and strongest fighter that has ever lived.

I am a 100 % convinced that three out of the four duplicate the Norton/Frazier results, I would put money on, guaranteed.

 

Sure but still, was he really stronger than George Foreman?

Sure, he wasn’t as skilled or as fast, but I don’t think he lost his strength.

Considering it’s the reason he wasn’t able to land punches, I don’t think he’d be shoved around if he could help it.

 

Again another rubbish post from you full of negativity always putting great fighters down.

I stopped reading at "weak chinned Frazier" and the claim that Frazier avoided punchers ?

One of the worst posts i've ever seen your on the ignore list so i don't lose anymore braincells reading your tripe.

 

1. Lewis
.
2. Holyfield

.
3. Bowe
.
.
4. Tyson

 

They are, indeed, absolutely offal.

 

I really feel Holy and Bowe have better chins. I still stand firm that Tyson has the best chance here with Lewis the least

Agree with you. One of the worst posts in ages. Troll post

 

Awful troll post

 

I would say peak, focused Lewis has the best chances. He would not go in there arrogantly dropping his guard or lackadaisical the he was against Rahman. Lewis has the tools to frustrate Foreman: Outside fighting ability, counters, can match him in raw physical strength to avoid getting bulldozed or pushed back, can fight on the back-foot, good ring IQ, etc. I think Lewis could win if he asserts himself at ring center with his jab and moves side to side, back and forth, to walk Foreman into shots. He probably would be better off weighing 230 or so for mobility and endurance. If he can avoid a slug-fest and can outland Foreman, he should be able to take a decision or stop him late. I'd still be worried about him getting nailed by something big and unable to recover, but a cautious in-shape Lewis is hard to hit cleanly.

#2 is Holyfield, but this really depends on his state of mind and approach. If he gets into his bad habit of being willing to trade or go right after Foreman, he has a chance. Holyfield was better than Young and could outbox Foreman.

I don't give Bowe and Tyson much of a chance. Bowe's leaky defense, tendency towards brawling, and questionable chin leads me to believe he would be one-big target and a disaster waiting to happen. Tyson could theoretically storm out his corner as soon as the bell rings unleashing a barrage to try and end the fight early, but...realistically this probably won't happen. Nobody ever took Foreman out with 1 big punch, and if you stand right in front of him letting your hands go, he can hit you too, and it will be painful .The problem with both Bowe and Tyson is they can't fight backing up and will be fighting fire with fire. Foreman's style is all wrong for a short peak a boo fighter (the shoving, framing, pulverizing jab, guard manipulation, etc).

 

Lennox beats any version of Foreman unless he gets caught with some silly ****..............I don't even think Holyfield or Tyson would have much chance vs 70's Foreman, and I don't see Bowe beating him either (on the inside)

 

The one who can box the best from the outside. Lewis.

 

Really well put, and I agree my friend.

 

Lewis had so many tools, and he would get WAY up for this fight. Clear UD, and George woud get lumped up.

Holy is a toss up, depends on his Warrior Spirit being engaged.

Tyson makes it 2 rounds, staggers him in the first. He ends up getting shoved into some truly hideous right uppercuts, and loses his legs like Berbick did against him.

Bowe took too many shots, but he might make it a decision if he gets past the first 6 rounds. It would be a very clear UD for George, though. Bowe wouldn't look too great.

 

You should do stand up…….

Punch bag Lyle lasts 5 but Tyson goes out in two……

Btw, Tyson waxes Frazier and Norton similar to Foreman, 10 out of 10, prime vs prime.

Lennox Lewis was put to sleep twice by ham and eggers with one punch, he is the absolute weakest chinned on the list but in Classic Forum la la land he wins ,the same guy who went 24 snooze rounds with a washed up Holyfield who Bowe in Evan fields prime busted up like a Baby seal and ultimately stopped him face down and out…….something Lewis/Tyson and old Foreman could not do yet Bowe is written off due to “leaky: defense yet Foreman in his first career had literally zero defense as exposed by Ali who hit him with lead rights at will which is a total insult to ANY Pro.fighter.

 

It has to be Holyfield.

Holyfield would put a one, two, three right down the middle, that Foreman would have no idea. Intimidation from young George would not work.
