    You're completely clueless. As usual, you resort to the old straw man fallacy, completely going on off on a tangent.

    "Take a class on hypertrophy". LOL. If only you knew...

    Not that easy of a fight for either man. Joshua was hittable against Ruiz, but Ruiz is much faster than Foreman. Foreman is going to be in the position of trying to blow out a much bigger stronger opponent. That said, Foreman has an excellent chin and if he wins it's going to be because Joshua has an average mandible and Foreman does not. I lean towards Foreman but it's not a given. Close to 50-50.

    The jab would be very important in this bout, the bot have a similar reach and benefit from their jabs, AJ had trouble with Parker and Wlad because of their jabs and Parker only has a 76 inch reach so Foreman`s jab would bother him even more, I`d say he who wins the jabbing battle will win this fight because both will struggle to operate on the inside without getting hurt, I lean towards AJ because he is much more skilled, but it would be close.

    giving George a chance when he was slow and easy to read and wouldnt land much is odd he loses this by being ko in the 1st

    Any version of George beats him up and KO's him.

    Foreman would definitely KO AJ. He's too crafty and can take everything that AJ throws at him

    George Foreman fought till his mid 40s and was TKOd once in over 70 Fights and you say a Prime Foreman would be KOD in the first round....Surely your joking.!!!

    Joshua is so much bigger than him and Foreman is going to be coming at him and if Foreman was ko'd by Ali and dropped by that one guy, Boxer-Puncher AJ will ko him after peppering him with jabs

    facts I keep telling these crazy people that George was slow and easy to read Josh is more skilled at using angles to punch and hits way harder

    Depends on which versions doesn't it really ? The fluid, hard punching Joshua against young, bombs away George is a straight up firefight and either man could win early.
    Old George, with his jab, block, counter style is horrible for the current AJ who has become methodical and painfully predictable. Against Old George, Josh needs a breather around the sixth and gets taken out.

    It’s not even a question. George was slow, inaccurate, had very limited defense, and lacked the basic fundamentals. Foreman’s overrated, I don’t even think he’d beat Usyk, Fury, or Wlad

    Sorry to say but when garbage men & bloated pigs such as Whyte & Ruiz can take Joshua to the brink & demolish him, young Foreman would just leave pure wreckage in the squared circle.
    Carry on
