    Nothing gives.

    I was responding to someone else's post using that logic to justify why Wladimir Klitschko would win.

    Big George would be little George he made a career being the bigger man and I think Wlad would be too disciplined and would outbox George in a rather boring affair with George possible being stopped late.

    Hard to say. They both have the power and the offensive capability to hurt each other. It'll come down to a battle of the jabs, Foreman's piston jab vs Wlad's snakey cobra jab. Whoever controls the other with this controls the range and the tempo of the fight. If that's Foreman he begins to break Wlad down and I can see a stoppage in the mid rounds following multiple knock downs and lots of clinching. If that's Wlad I see an increasingly busted up Foreman getting wild with crazy caveman shots and maybe dropping a few times in the later stages.

    Foreman by first Round Knockout.

    Foreman fights like Joshua in Round 4 where Wlad easily goes down.
    The Difference here is: George will do this in the first round and he will not stop and he has no glass jaw like Joshua
    and he is also stronger than the Weightlifter Joshua , was the better , more effective Boxer and
    cuts off the ring if Wlad should get up again.

    People who pick Wlad here are delusional.

    This. Some idiots just can’t stomach it but Wlad hit every bit as hard, had faster hands, longer range, as good a jab if not better and would arguably be the hardest punch young Foreman fought. Oh and Wladimir was a smarter boxer.

    Foreman gets dealt with better than he was against Jimmy Young. Wlad TKO9

    Vlad is way too athletic and has a left hand that is so much more sophisticated than anything Foreman has seen.

    You can't follow a guy like Vlad around the ring without paying the price. He doesn't throw a little flicking pawing jab like Ali. Vlad is way too big and has too much natural hand and foot speed. He is also strong enough to muscle George in a clinch. Foreman gets KO'd in round 8 or 9. The slow ass punches that worked in the 70's do not land big in this fight.
