    I certainly think he could beat him, but I wouldn't favor him.

    Lord that version of Foreman would salivate at getting Glass Jawed Wilder in the ring. Those are the types of fights he dominated in.

    Guys if Stiverne and Molina can catch Wilder with hooks then WTF is Foreman gon do to him?

    Foreman would literally TKO him in 5 rounds. I don't see a scenario where Wilder would somehow avoid getting hit clean by George.

    I think he's less skilled than Morrison but more physically gifted. That said, I do think he could outbox old George over 12 as long as he stayed away from him. 70's Foreman on the other hand would cut the ring off much better and stop him.

    Wilder would get destroyed. He's terrible. No chin, his power is a fraud, and he has no technique at all. Foreman would annihilate him.

    :huh

    Morrison was a physical specimen... Wilder is truly one of the most ridiculous looking heavyweights I've ever ever seen. Goes with out saying that Morrison was more physically gifted, and much more talented than this fraud.

    :lol: People seriously overrate 90s Foreman's punching power based off one very famous KO of a chinny, blown-up LHW and another less famous KO of a chinny, ex-addict who hadn't fought in 3 years.

    Right now, 90's big George would wipe the floor with him.

    Solid chin and proper power, Wilder is what his name says he is.. too wild & Foreman would catch him and take him out.

    Wilder has A LOT of flaws which he needs to address.

    if I recall correctly, he managed to hurt Briggs, and in his prime Cannon had a solid chin, to say the least
