    I have Foreman/Louis 1/2 and the only reason I have Foreman number 1 is I don't think Louis could beat him matchup wise.

    Louis beats the F out of Foreman and an old version of a better HW then GF beat him easily then future journeyman Uncle Jimmy bashes him up… not sure how he’s the H2H 1 guy here

    Lennox Lewis could beat everybody listed, Tyson could and Louis… Frazier gets wrecked by everyone listed… Foreman beats Frazier but losses badly to specimens like Tyson, Lewis and Louis he’s just plain overmatched in everything but mythos.

    Imagine thinking Louis could lose to Foreman… lol that’s in the same tier in my eyes as believing Julian Jackson could beat Ray Robinson.

    I would add Wlad from the Chagev fight. But out of the ones listed would pick Lewis as the best H2H

    I see no reason to doubt Foreman could knock down Louis and doubt very strongly the reverse is true. If Foreman knocks down Louis a few times hes getting 10-8s even if Louis survives to the closing bell.

    Louis for me. A complete fighter from start to finish. He put a hurting on Max that hurt him the rest of his life. That's coming from Max not me.

    I like 2007 Wlad the most. I think he was locked in under Steward improvements and more aggressive than later on.
