    Bob Foster tended not to do so hot against heavyweights

    Yeah, especially against opponents above 200 pounds his record shows he’s not able to hang with the big boys.

    Scary fact: Bob Foster fought at middleweight as an amateur (and at a pretty high level, competing in the Olympic Trials and Pan Am Games iirc). Even though the amateur middle limit is 165, that’s Thomas Hearns-like stuff to imagine Bob bombing away on guys at that weight.

    I liked Alex Stewart, he just got stuck in there.no messing around.
    He gave Holyfield a really good fight before been stopped.
    I think he should have been awarded the decision against Foremen or at least a draw.
    Maybe Roy Jones sneaks a decision.. if his chin hold up..
