    Pff, I thought we were talking a healthy-legged Yuri. At least that would have been competitive.

    Huge Foreman fan here, but Vitali would have really given George problems.

    Vitali is a defensive master, particularly given his size. The Arreola fight is a good example. If he wanted to stay out of range, either just by leaning back and/or using his footwork, he would probably be able to do so much of the time, while leaning in to score with jabs and winging accurate counters after Foreman threw.

    Younger George probably wasn't patient enough to beat Vitali. Older George would have had no almost no chance.

    Still, as good as Vitali's chin is, you can't dismiss George having a "puncher's chance" here. If George hits you, things can get bad quickly. But I pick Vitali by UD.

    That's a ****in' shame. Foreman losing the poll? wow. Vitali will not bully and dominate Foreman. Foreman stops him in 6.

    Vitali prepares him half hook half uppercut and KO's him inside of 10

    No ****. Wilding your way thru the most stacked hw division in history means nothing. Beating Joe fraziers ass like he's a child means nothing. Gold medal means nothing. Brutally crushing norton means nothing. One of the hardest punching, most aggressive and strongest heavyweights in history? Means nothing. Vitali will win by leaning back hahahahahahaha

    Wielding his way through the most stacked division in history? Foreman fought an incredible list of bums, and I don't use that word lightly, before he beat Frazier. He beat Frazier and Norton, that's it, And please don't tell me Scott LeDoux would be champ today.

    Oh yeah... Foremans superior jab and longer reach? That means nothing either, no sweat. Vit will shut that rampaging animal down by leaning back.

    Foreman would kick his ass, Sanders had him ready to in the 1st, an old out of shape Lewis was starting to bust him up. If Vitali was as good as people think he would've easily done what others before him have done; beat the old fading champ, and become the man.
