    1994 does the rope a dope on the 1973 version , he really does , wears him down and stops him late.

    yup, even though comeback George was far better technically, prime George was too much for everyone aside from Ali and some of those guys prime Foreman destroyed I'd also pick over a 94 Foreman.

    Foreman had great power, but he is a little overrated either era. He had a great style matchup against Frazier. I would pick the younger Foreman, but then again it would be tough since he would have to avoid the older Foreman's punch. either way it is tough because of the punching power of either age Foreman.

    Young Foreman lost to Ali.
    Old one lost to Tommy Morrison and Shannon Briggs, and required a bit of "luck" to get past Stewart and Shultz.

    Old George would beat Young George, because Old George would know what Young George was gonna do before Young George did it.

    Old George by KO.
