96 Golota vs 76 Foreman

Brewster was pretty damn solid. A great chin, decent hand speed and a wicked left hook.

There was a Golota-Tommy Morrison match up the other day that I just saw as a complete Morrison blow out as well, for the very same reasons you've stated and Brewster exposed. Golota wasn't that bad but against aggressive punchers he just froze. Against boxers like Byrd and maulers like Ruiz he was a tough ask but aggressive, powerful guys just forget about it. He wasn't worth a pinch of sh1t.

1976 Foreman was still aggressive (though more conservative than he was previous) and still bloody powerful.

 

One punch from Foreman brings Golota back to reality.

 

And we know what Foreman did to Norton.

 

Bowe has nothing on George Foreman.

 

Neither Bowe nor Golota resemeble Young stylistically, the fact that this has to be explained to you makes me wonder about your general iq.

 

I think Foreman would be too much for Golota. No doubt this would be a good scrap for as long as it lasted but overall I just see George's punches have more effect on Golota. I see Golota getting busted up, breaking down and probably hitting the canvas around the 5th round. With Golota who knows what may transpire when he is getting beat up by Foreman he could resort to low blows or headbutts, don't think it would help him much though.

 

No he wouldn't.

Golota's reputation is entirely made up of 2 DQ losses against a disgraceful and totally shot Bowe (who's overrated to begin with) and for folding or fouling every single time he faced adversity. His best victories are probably Orlin Norris, ancient Tim Witherspoon and probably thousand year old Jesse Ferguson none of whom he could stop. Other than that it was no names and a draw with Chris Byrd who couldn't crack an egg with his punches (and as I've stated previously Golota was difficult if he had nothing to fear coming back at him).

Lyle and Frazier would never quit and would be constantly stalking and landing punishing shots and absorbing whatever Golota threw (and Golota didn't hit hard enough to deter either man).Both had better wins, were harder punchers, had more intestinal fortitude, were tougher and were flat out better fighters than Andrew. He likely quits or gets KTFO but he definitely doesn't see the final bell.

 

So 96 Golota is completely different from the 97 Golota who actually did freeze and dog it against an aggressive big guy (who was actually elite and not shot and overrated) in Lennox Lewis?

Sure he was.
