True. Ali fans do the same thing. They'll find reasons why a prime Ali at 6'3 210 lbs and not a power puncher could beat say Mike Tyson or a...
Sometimes its plausible, sometimes it's not. I can see Marciano giving hard fights to say Joe Fraizer or Muhammad Ali. I don't see him doing much...
I specifically said Ali's 60s opposition, not his career best opposition. I was comparing Marciano's title defenses to Ali's 64-67 title defenses....
Before George Foreman massacred Fraizer, what had he done and who had he beaten to merit picking him over Joe Fraizer? Fraizer had battered,...
This is just pure nostalgia. Joshua stopping Wlad Klitchsko is more indicative of AJ beating George Foreman than anyone Foreman beat in the 70s is...
Yeah but the opponents for the most part that Foreman beat on the way up to Fraizer were for the most part no better than the opponents AJ beat up...
Wondering if AJ could have beaten Foreman is a very valid question because it isn't like AJ is just some random contender that happens to be a big...
Are you talking about Bob Fitzsimmons
What about young Mike Tyson vs Jim Jefferies
The AJ vs Ali thread went 77 pages and there are some good points made for AJ, some of which would also apply to AJ vs Foreman....
I can imagine that if this were 1967, 50 years ago and if the internet and boxingforum24 was around, I'd be e-crucified if I posted a thread...
That might be, but his power was the same and he was landing clean shots on Lyle early as round 2, in fact when the round ended, Lyle was on the...
Too mobile and too quick? A younger Foreman had bursts of explosiveness but it seems to me that AJ is quicker and has the superior movement...
Well I don't think AJ would beat a young Tyson, but one reason I think he'd beat Foreman is because of stamina. I think AJ could last 4 or 5...
Seems like im a lone wolf in here.
