    Why he mentions foreman I have no idea. The only thing of relevance is that they were both over 40, the big difference between Botha and Foreman, aside from the obvious, is that when foreman made a comeback in 87, after being out of the ring 10 years, he went on a unbeaten winning streak that lasted up until Holyfield in 91. Botha comes back and goes 2-1-1, with one of the wins being close SD

    Since when has Fury been this Monster destroying everyone in brutal fashion. I would say Botha would be a live underdog.

    I don't believe it's solely down to Botha's age. If it was then they won't be allowing Froch-Johnson to take place over here either.
