    I dont personaly rate George Foreman as the fourth greatest heavyweight of all time, but I can well understand the argument for it.

    He esentialy has the two best wins in the history of the heavyweight division on his leger 20 years apart!

    Some guy in the general forums said if prime George Foreman had the benefit of modern nutrion and training he would weigh over 280 lbs of solid muscle and punch even harder without stamina problems. Essentially he would be a black Incredible Hulk. Considering this new information, I think 4 is about right. Only Ike Ibebauchi, prime Bert Cooper, and SNV could handle such a beast.

    Not without the help of Noni, and there was a reason Bluetooth headsets were banned in Championships fights immediately after. Unfair advantage.

    What a '****.
    IMO Prime Foreman would be no-bigger then 240lbs with the sort of roids ect that Tyson And Holyfield used.

    If by 240 you mean 440 I would agree. Foreman's frame is infinite. He could carry the bulk of 2 Primos IMO. And if that doesn't work, he could use modern rehydration to cut 20 lbs of water weight and compete as a cruiser, where he would destroy. He trained down to 215 before, 195, won't be a stretch. Just look at what Martinez is doing with modern training.
