    well your material as always is mental...so heres a SIMPLE answer for a simpleton.....


    IF Joshua wins he still beat a DOMINANT era champion who can PUNCH and far more dangerous than 42 year old Holmes.

    IF Wlad wins he STILL defeated a far more better fighter than Mercer!

    Lol Foreman is obviously not anywhere close to as strong, Valuev is not on the level of Joshua.

    Foreman isn't as strong as who? Joshua or Wlad? If you mean Joshua then clearly you are just one of these biased Joshau fan boys. Even at 50 he was still bullying guys like 6'4 230 pound guys like Briggs around the ring.

    Foreman was literally known for being stronger than everybody. The only guy that could even deal with Foreman when it came to strength whether it was sparring or a fight was Sonny Liston. Joshua doesn't even lift weights so he doesn't build his strength up. All he does is agility work.

    Plus it has already been established that Foreman is one of if not THE strongest heavyweight to live. The onus is on you to prove that Joshua is stronger, not the other way around.

    Valuev is obviously not on the same level. I already said that thanks for repeating it. Are you saying that Joshua is bigger?

    He was not 50 against Briggs, and yes Joshua is obviously far stronger than Foreman ever was, just look at the size difference.

    Foreman was 18 and under 210 pounds when he used to spar Liston, which says a lot for how exaggerated Liston's strength is. Foreman was stronger than guys from the 70s, and he only fought guys he outweighed in the 90s, not Lewis, or Bowe. Joshua is clearly stronger than Foreman.

    Excellent Post.

    I'm glad you mentioned Breazele. I honestly think he has one of the best chins at hevyweight. That guy is underrated he's tough as nails and never quits.

    Cute story. as I said Foreman was measured at 6'3 and 230 as a 19 year old. So again you are showing how stupid Joshau fans are. [url]http://www.boxing-scoop.com/show_boxer.php?boxer_ID=3907[/url] Against Albert Wilson he was 226 at 19.

    Foreman in his prime fought Jack O"Halloran who was 6'6 235 and moved him around like a child. He fought 6'5 225 plus pound Chuck Wepner, Vernon Clay was 230, Mel Tumbrow 6'3 240, Stamford Harris 6'5 230, and you can go on and on. Also since clearly you just some little kid with a hard on for Joshua your man crush. Fighters back in the day tried to be as ligh as possible to keep some level of speed. Now guys just bulk up with PED's or just come in over weight.


    Foreman was just fat when he came out of retirement. Various guys were naturally heavier than he was and he stil muscled them around. Holyfield fought Bowe, Lewis and Foreman and said Foreman was stronger. I think Evander would know more about their strenght than you do. You really need to stop riding Joshua kid. It is cool to be a fan but there is a limit to this.

    It took Joshua punch after punch to stopped a fatigue Breazele and slow club fighter Amir Mansour almost did it with one punch.

    That only strengthens my argument. Instead of only Liston being able to handle him, nobody handles Foreman in the strength department.

    There isn't one opponent Foreman couldn't man handle. Just because one guy outweighs another doesn't mean the bigger guy is stronger. Again, provide proof that Joshua is stronger. Is there even any testimony about how strong Joshua is?

    But more importantly, you do realize that by saying Foreman was under 18 and under 210 lbs that only strengthens my argument? That makes me question your intelligence on just a basic level.

    Foreman was stronger than the guys he fought, because he only fought guys he had a size advantage over, he refused to fight Tony Tucker for that reason and binned his WBA strap. Also why he was desperate to fight Tyson, but did not bother with a fight with Lewis or Bowe.
