    I would say 91 Foreman should KO him, but would Wilders height bother this version of Foreman?

    It's either a decision for Wilder or a stoppage for Foreman.

    Foreman wins Wilder has always been an overrated hypejob.

    Far from easy fight, but George would outweight Wilder by over 30 lbs. Usually it's not a big deal for me, but look what Fury did to Wilder. Foreman was even stronger than Fury, he would move him around like a ragdoll. Wilder's best chance is at long range but Foreman wouldn't fight at long range, he would run straight to him and punish him inside with powerful body shots and awkward uppercuts.

    The only chance for Wilder is to hurt George early, because that could make hin less agressive. Of course hurting old Foreman early is highly unlikely. Then again, Foreman had far better jab than Wilder so outpointing him also wouldn't be easy. Old Foreman wasn't ATG fighter, but he looks like a bad matchup for Wilder to me.

    Any version of Foreman rolls right over Wilder.

    He was older against them though and at this point any additional year matters.
