    Prime St. Peter fights prime Foreman. Does Sam's left hook send George to the pearly gates?

    Waiting for the inevitable posts about how the flabby mediocre Peter is somehow more athletic, evolved, stronger, tougher, and will bully the "much smaller" Foreman who isn't used to fighting men as HUGE as Peter and will gas out unable to keep up with the hectic pace.

    I’m picking Foreman by KO or TKO. But I can see Peter trading and exchanging some hard shots with him before eventually being stopped. It would be a shootout for about 4-6 rounds

    Peter did something in the first Wlad fight that Foreman never proved he could do.

    @Fergy you picked Peter by stoppage? Seems like an odd pick for you

    One guy was getting dropped in round 12 by…*checks notes*…Jimmy Young, the other ate bombs in round 12 from Wlad Klitschko.

    Drop a guy three times and let him off the hook?

    Are you implying that Jimmy Young wouldn't have dropped Sam Peter in round 12 and that Foreman wouldn't have ate bombs from Wlad in round 12?
