A properly focused Foreman respecting Ali's prowess would already be too much, although Zaire would likely always favor Ali's relaxed and precise...
When Usyk said he is disrespecting his flag, I think AJ pissed himself.
How'd he fare?
My money would still be on Holyfield, albeit in a very competitive fight. At heavyweight Usyk hadn't fought anybody at the level of Holyfield....
Foreman fight aside, which I consider a rather circumstantial though impressive win, Jimmy outperformed Ron Lyle twice and gave Norton fits....
His lack of balls blew him the chance at beating fat-as-hog Ali. He learned the lesson by heart as seen in his subsequent bouts.
118-110 but I have a round or two with *, meaning I could see somebody giving to the other fighter.
Golota from the Bowe fights kills Joshua. Big, twice the boxer Joshua is, and he could actually take a punch and slug it out for a while unlike AJ...
Dead meat. Unless Joshua runs around like a scared hoodie, destroying the remains of his reputation, he gets clipped bad. Foreman might not...
Usyk - Joshua II wasn't close for me on a 2nd watch. Sizeable punchers (especially ones that have the crowd wet everytime they windmill the air)...

Rewatched the fight. Scored it 116-113 for Hrgovic. Without the commentary and halo effect of the first round I could give it to him with clear...
I wouldn't say so. Current trash media hype really dilutes what it means to be an ATG heavyweight. The likes of Holmes, Ali, Frazier, Foreman, or...
Shaking my head.
Y'all must've forgot.
