Scary thought- Gerald Mceallan was 190lbs at one point on fight night. Imagine if Foster could shed 30lbs or so and come in at 147lbs
Nonsense. McClellan was no taller than 6 feet. Stockier guys like Kovalev and Ward who are just as tall (or taller) don't weigh 190 in the ring. Foster at SMW would have interesting fights. He probably loses to Ward. He would end up at 175 and be stronger for it since he would not have to make weight half a day before fighting.
It's intriguing to think about what Robinson himself would have done to his contemporaries if he had (sole and exclusive) access to modern "nutrition," training, weight cutting / rehydration methods, etc.
I said you can believe what you want man. It’s all word of mouth hardly great evidence but I’ll try and dig it up if you’d like.
It would have been interesting Foster against Ward I have that fight being really close, could go either way for me. Again Foster against Calzaghe would have been another interesting one. Some people forget actually how good a Foster, it isn’t out of the realms of possibility that he could beat Calzaghe, Ward and Jones.
