Name a Heavyweight in History who could outslug Prime Foreman?

you know what. ill give u ibeabuchi

i never thought to say ibeabuchi.

ibeabuchi would lay it on foreman too.

i mean hed prolly see demons and **** after

but in the fight i could see him getting foremans best.

thats 1 heavyweight that could go HARD all 12 rounds.

 

I don't care how old Lennox was or how fat he was. That uppercut he caught VK with had about the same in it that old fat foremans right dropped Moorer with. Anyway this isn't about Klit Lewis, I think Lewis won fair and square by the tko. You can say Foreman would work him over all you like but if you read my other post I explain why and point out due to it being a FANTASY my opinion is as justified as yours... as in it won't happen and we will never know. Jawohl mein Fuhrer :good

 

holyfield is an honorable mention

 

I personally believe big george beats almost any heavy in a slugfest, but a guy like Max Baer would give him a tough fight, guy had an iron chin and one of the heaviest right hands i've ever seen.

Louis has a great chance to just destroy him, he did this with most big slugging guys that came to him, absolutely annihilated them to boot. His punching is accurate, fast, incredibly explosive and thrown in combinations despite having individual KO power.

Liston would also have a good chance. Huge reach, underrated boxing skill, murderous power, good jab and solid head movement in his prime as well as a great chin demonstrated by his bouts with Williams.

Other than that I don't see a lot of guys beating him in a come forward fight. He would **** the smaller swarming heavies(Tyson, Marciano, Frazier, Dempsey), and most of the other sluggers or boxer punchers in the division just aren't of a high enough quality or lack the physical attributes.

I think Tyson and Frazier probably hit as hard as one another, it just appears Tyson hits harder as he was more technically skilled to land punches flush which look more flashy on a highlight reel. I'm even more inclined to say Frazier had a harder left hook than Tyson.

Remember Frazier was knocking people out in under 5 rounds and for most of his career he had a crude style, relying on a jab and left hook, and was easily hit as he prefered bob the head but move in a straight line.

Tyson hit well with either hand and utilised speed and angles to deliver flush punches. If you took away his right hand power, and if he emulated Frazier's style I don't think he'd be half as succesful.

People with SOME CHANCE

Tyson
Tua
Lewis
Holyfield

 

That's obvious because Tyson has his own style... You're right him and Frazier are not the same and I don't understand why people interchange the two. You take away Tysons right hand and you're taking away that murderous right uppercut that set up many knock outs...

Tyson>Frazier. No disrespect to Joe. Tyson was a midrange more complete fighter and Joe was a pressure swarmer. They aren't the same other than having a similar build and devastating explosive power.

 

tyson yea

tua HELL YEAH

lewis (it would depend on who got the better chin if they brawled)

holyfeild (could outbox foreman but he wouldnt win toe to toe)

 

D'amato even told Tyson he didn't really have a chance against george, along with every other swarming heavy.

 

well thats true
but tyson aint gonna be so easy to hit.

if tyson gets inside he would do damage.

foreman only had 5 lbs on tyson.

tyson punches with not only power but volume.

tysons hit can possibly add up and be enough to give wear and tear to foreman.



BUT style for style foreman would win because hes gonna get hit by some powerful hits trying to go inside.


but its not at all impossible for tyson to outbrawl foreman

 

Out Slug??? There are only a few fighters that could out slug Foremen. Out slug means to stand toe to toe defense down and trade punches.

Ron Lyle tried and failed in the "Greatest Heavyweight In History". but Ron also sent Foreman to the canvas several times and was one punch away from a win.

The only other two were Sonny Liston and Ernie Shavers. End of list.
