    Golota fights on level terms with Old George for three or four rounds until he gets tagged and stopped.
    Young George blitzes Golota out in one or two rounds.

    Golota at his absolute best had good mobility, could box well, and decent speed for a big man. That version...that hadn't developed the habit of quitting just yet...could have been a difficult task for 1991 George, and possibly could have decisioned him, especially over 10 rounds.

    Do not like Golata's defense whatsoever against the big hitters.

    And once tagged or hurt all he can do is fight his way out of trouble. Won't work against George and one of those bouts would end in a brutal ko.

    He'd do okay for a few rounds against old George, he'd be blasted out by the youthful version.

    Any version of Foreman flattens Golota in a brutal way.

    Literally no chance Foreman in his comeback fights, punchers chance but I think he gets stopped himself actually… Prime GF had a strong will was aggressive, wore shots well and pressed his man with every punch being a whopper… Golota would be faster, stronger, bigger, taller and the better boxer by a bit but I think his mindset was wrong for a wilful terrier like GF if he had the momentum going and was scoring he’d do alright and you’d need to hope on GF running on fumes… now AG did have the right idea on beating GF watch the Bowe fights and what he did on the inside he “could” do it but probably wouldn’t. My 0.2 if Foreman doesn’t overwhelm him (more likely) he may not self destruct before GF gasses out and win.

    Golota may win against the old Foreman, looking at how poor George looked sometimes, but I think in the end he still folds mentally and quits.

    George’s balls couldn't take the punishment….
