    Miller is literally faster than Old Foreman. So is Joyce. This guy lost a UD to Morrison what are even arguing here?

    Not Joyce bro. Miller is about as fast as old Foreman, less power, more cardiovascular disease. Dubois is better overall but Morrison had better lateral movement than Dubois, smaller target, more heart. Dubois is a quitter, will 100% quit if Foreman walks him down

    No Joyce of the Dubois match was faster. Miller is faster and can actually throw power shots in combination while Foreman just plods to you with the jab and throws singular power shots. Morrison doesnt move as well as Dubois neither was he a better boxer or a tougher one. Same with Alex Stewart.

    This is not gonna be Usyk vs Dubois or Joyce vs Dubois. Old Foreman isn’t gonna overwhelm Dubois with slick combos and movement nor will he be able to continuously walk down, outwork and break a pre-prime Dubois like Joyce did.

    He doesn't need to outwork, he has KO power, better chin, and when he walks Dubois down and lands some shots, Dubois quits. Miller threw nothing after a few rounds. Joyce isn't faster than old Foreman, you are lying to yourself. Compare tape and come back to me.

    I can’t believe I’m actually writing this but no a man that couldn’t walk down Morrison isn’t gonna walk down Dubois.

    Morrison is more agile than Dubois, smaller target, more heart. Boxing is more mental than it is physical. Daniel Dumbass quits when that powerpole jab lands

    Morrison also got slept by Michael Bentt in 1. But OLD FOREMAN IS A MONSTER MAN 11!!!1!1!1!

    Old Foreman is the type of guy Dubois feasts on, he aint no Usyk.

    He couldn't feast on slow ass Joyce when Zhang did. Daniel Dumbass will realize he can't KO Foreman and when he gets hit with that power mr black Homer Simpson calls it a day and lays down. He's a quitter

    Im gonna leave this for now because you look like you are having a seizure, just never forget, a guy Michael Bentt (who? Exactly) killed in one round owns Foreman.

    He’s been hurting above 240lbs heavyweights quite regularly… OU also hit him in the ear area which puts people weird.

    Yesss ... I noticed that too. Punches on or just behind the ear seem to destroy balance and make people wobbly for a while.

    Sometimes a good shot is a good shot, folks shouldn’t question D1ck Tigers chin for getting dropped by Emile Griffith, getting stopped by Usyk isn’t exactly getting KO’d by Joey Maxim lol.

    Boxing doesn’t work like that though does it?

    If it did Foreman after flogging Frazier and Norton would stroll through Muhammad Ali who lost to both. It didn’t happen though.

    DDD is a chinny quitter. Foreman old or young was neither. Old George would slam his power jab and uppercuts into Daniel and he’d fold sooner or later.

    The slow as molasses, arm punching, old and ordinary Joe Joyce broke Dubois down with a slow ponderous jab that wasnt close to Foreman’s in power or precision and DDD submitted and quit. It’s in his DNA to fold when faced with adversity.

    He can't.

    Even in the 90's (first half of that decade, anyway), Foreman uppercuts were so swift.
