    Wlad. 40-year old Foreman would be an ideal, tailor made opponent for Wlad. Big George at 40 was just too old, slow, and open to be hit.

    88-93 would simply annihilate any version of Wlad. Seriously , that is one of the worst match ups out there for him.

    The Foreman jab was harder than most guys right hands and had enough power to shatter Wlads chin on impact. A right hand landing on this chin?? :yikes: We're boxing fans here , not sicko's. Its not a fair fight tin the slightest.

    Wlad on points. He's just much better conditioned.

    Comeback Foreman never had stamina issues. It was better than Wlads - who gassed out multiple times.

    Wlad is low out- put, can't box off the back foot and spends way too much time in the clinch. With his glass chin and fragile mental state its a recipe for disaster.

    You can't beat Foreman unless you have a back foot game. Lol @ Wlad reaching out to grab Big George and surviving to tell the tale:qmeparto::facepalm:

    Wlad wins a decision.

    Foreman has a punchers chance of course but I doubt Wlad would make the same mistake Moorer did, Wlad isn't the kind to take a risk. He'll jab and clinch his way to a decision, too fast, too big, hits too hard for Foreman to just keep trying to walk him down.

    It goes the distance because Wlad will feel Foreman's power and not risk looking to take him out and if Jennings can take Wlad the distance then Foreman can as well.

    Foreman bullies Wlad in my opinion.

    A load of baloney. Foreman out jabs Wlads jab 10/10.

    Wlad had to totally abandon the jab after he got staggered off the Pulev jab. If a pitter pater Pulev jab can rock Wlad , imagine what a Foreman jab would would do to him:nut:

    This Wlad right now has no jab. He has nothing but a single punch and a clinch. Foreman heards him around the ring with long clubbing jabs and right hands.
    He isn't standing in front of that and a clinch isn't going to save him either.
    He couldn't keep SaM Peter off him in his absolute prime. He hasn't a prayer of tieing up Foreman whose brute strength was unparalleled along with his power.

    Wlad doesn't get to set his feet to put anything together . He's out gunned , out muscled , out maned . Ridiciouls to even think he's see the 4th round.

    What was Moorers mistake exactly .. that his chin wasn't made of harder materials. You said many times that Wlads jab disappeared years ago , so how how he compete against one of the best , hardest and most powerful jabs of all time. :shakehead::drooling:

    Foreman by KO mid rounds. Wlad has really come apart at 40 and looks just about completely finished. Jab is gone, legs are gone, reflexes are gone. 89-91 Foreman was still a very formidable force. Wlad would lose the battle of the jabs and gets mugged when he tries to tie up Forreman in close.

    Wladimir. Foreman is far too slow, and he'lol find in very hard to land anything clean on Wladimir.
