This fight will be decided with who has the better chin and Foreman has actually gotten off the canvas to prevail......once Lewis goes down , he stays down, fact.
One thing is that Lewis would be prepared for Foreman. Ironically, the hardest punchers that Lewis fought like Tua and Tyson and others, weren't the ones to KO him. Hypothetically, Tua and Tyson would have been the ones to do it, not McCall and Rahman. I think it was due to Lewis being prepared to cope with their power and he likely would be well prepared for Foreman as well. Foreman's best case scenario IMO would be to try to bulldoze Lewis from the start and take no prisoners. This is risky however because Foreman would expose himself to some Lewis artillery. And it could end up backfiring if Foreman wasn't careful. Overall, I'd favor Lewis, but really wouldn't call a Foreman win an upset.
Most of the great Heavyweight champs knew there was other great heavies that carried the power to knock them out. George inside 5....or Lewis wins an extended fight.
When Lewis faced a dangerous opponent he always played it safe and fought a tactical fight.....he would never come out guns blazing, he played it safe with old Holyfield, totally shot to shid Tyson and one trick pony Tua. He would emply the same strategy against Foreman except Foreman is not going to oblige and will force a shoot out.
Ruddock (the guy Tyson couldn't ko in 2 goes) and Golota say hello. Tyson was belted with uppercuts very early on.
What a ridiculous argument lol. Better delete this trash. Lewis was in his complete peak when he lost to McCall and rahman
McCall and Rahman were 7 years apart. When McCall occurred it prompted Lewis to hire Steward and Steward then transformed him into a much different fighter with much better preparation and professionalism. Rahman wasn't even mentioned. Not sure i'd call a heavyweight complete peak at 35-36 tho. Zero chance Lewis comes in underprepared for a unit like Foreman too. So the only trash is yours
