    I think Foreman would have to knock him out, I really dont see him winning a decision against Valuev, he would keep him at a distance with his constant jab and high workrate. While Valuev has been wobbled a little bit, never really rocked though. Foreman who I regard as having a top notch chin, was rocked a good bit after catching a 13+ punch combo from Hoyfield, though I cant see many fighters standing after getting hit those shots.

    I would, and most others would agree. He was floored 3 times, had a handful of panic attacks, turned his back to his oppenent to avoid punches, as well as initiating 97 clinches, on his way to an only 3 point victory on all 3 of the judges scorecards.

    I will be honest, Peter lost that fight fair and square, but to say Wlad didnt struggle to win during that fight, your either lying to yourself or havent seen the whole fight. Wlad was roughed up that night, and he hasnt taken a beating like that since his meeting with Peter 3 years ago.

    The best versions of Foreman in the 90's beats everyone but Vitali. The worst version who did little more than the calm slow plodding around the ring after his opponents may lose a few.
