    Foreman. I've long thought that the 90s Foreman would have beaten the 90s Holmes. I wish their fight had happened.

    I agree. But Peak for Peak, Larry would have clearly out boxed Foreman! No doubt about it. Holmes had skills Foreman never had!

    Yeah, I would agree with that also. Prime Holmes had everything it took to beat a prime Foreman.

    Holmes was faster than Foreman and a better fighter and resume all around. Longer reign and just a greater fighter. Holmes would have made Foreman look slow surprisingly.
