    If,hypothetically, lead lands the lotto punch it definitely would be the single greatest hw win. I think I read a post where the poster claimed he/she thought foreman was more skilled than Aj, I literally read it over and over looking for any possible reason it was a mistype but couldn't find one.

    We have a fan that doesn't have the first clue on gauging talent, which nd obviously thinks a name is an actual talent. George, the grill man is a more known name, in the U.S. but the immense gap b between those 2 in talent couldn't be any larger between HOF fighters, yes Aj s building his HOF career as we speak. Aj is the mod talented big man I've seen while George used brute strength which wouldn't carry over against the truly highly r talented and far biggest men.

    George wouldn't fair we well vitali, wlad, LL, Aj. All bad losses. Could even add bowe and golata level fighters (too many on that level to list) as being pick em fights

    Uh, no. Ali was coming off being exiled from the sport, and Foreman won the title by destroying Frazier, who beat Ali.

    When Aj does meet fury, it's going to be a destruction via one sided beat down. Fury has nothing to stop the Aj assault, nothing

    Your fantasy predictions aren't relevant to the thread though. That never happened, so the fight has no real resemblance to Ali-Foreman.

    Is this supposed to be a serious question?

    The idea of Foreman being more skilled than AJ is laughable.
    Foreman had no skills at all , he only had power , he literally only had power and a decent jab and nothing else and that was enough for him to dominate in the 70s against smaller men.
    He was kinda similar to Deontay Wilder , the only difference is that he is a legend and Wilder is not.

    Considering you are talking out your mini flyweight ass on this subject, maybe you should stop posting?

    I would rate it ahead of Holmes/Mercer and Foreman/Moorer as the best old man Heavyweight win of all time. Not on par or comparable with Ali/Foreman however.

    No simularities IMO. Foreman was more of an established fighter by the time he fought Ali. Foreman fought and beat the likes of Frazier and Norton in spectacular fashion. Joshua has just jumped a few levels in class and it's not comparable to the experience that Foreman had before he fought Ali.

    Vitali was 40 when he beat Adamek, that belongs up there too.
