Hopkins - Foreman: more difficult for a MW or for a HW becoming world champion after a certain age?

That was two years after his Holyfield fight though. At that age 2 years is a lot, he was quicker and in better shape against Evander.
I doubt that Wilder would decide to outbox and stay away from Foreman, I haven't seen him doing that in any fight. Ortiz has slow feet himself and he did very good job of cutting off the ring against him. And Ortiz isn't as powerful as Foreman and doesn't have his chin.

 

Mark Anthony!! LOL! I can't disprove your point, not sure you can prove it, but I wouldn't be surprised had we seen it, --it may have went down just like U said!
