    Does Wilder KO Foreman? Do you see Foreman winning this?

    Foreman batters him with his telephone pole jab and sends him reeling to the canvas with an uppercut. Then he puts that dumb bronze mask into the back of Wilder's boxing trunks as a surprise for when they revive him.

    Old Foreman was slow as hell. As much as I think Wilder is not very good, he'd be too fast and athletic for Foreman to catch. Assuming Wilder fights smart, I think he would decision Foreman. If he gets reckless, I think Wilder gets stopped. Foreman was slow but he could punch and Wilder isn't exactly George Chuvalo in the chin department.

    If an old Ortiz can take you 10....an old Foreman can take you 12.

    Foreman had trouble with movers and Wilder can punch. IF the Breazeale fight happens I could break this down! I don't know how Wilder will react to a bigger guy who has heavy hands...

    i would call it 50/50.

    My first instinct is to go with Big George by KO. On the other hand, Wilder has the legs and the stamina to stay on the outside and land the occasional punch for a careful stinker of a decision against an older and slower Foreman. Finally, it could just be a matter of levels that would become quickly apparent, but that is sometimes hard to gauge, so I dunno'.

    I take Old Foreman by late KO.

    I think there is Old Foreman and really old Foreman, at the very end he was really old, maybe Wilder UDs that Foreman but a year earlier old Forman knocks him out late or middle.

    It would be interesting to see what would happen when Wilder detonated on Big George’s chin. But it would never happen. George would look like a master boxer against Wilder.

    He's competitive with old and prime Foreman. Wilder's power is insane.

    Foreman would out jab him like ancient Foreman did to Briggs. So a points decision from a Wilder who decides to box might not be guaranteed, remember Washington with his weak jab was out boxing Wilder.

    Wilder also would be up against a bigger puncher for the first time. I suspect he'd be ultra cautious, even Morrison didn't dare to toe to toe with Foreman.

    If it does go to the cards then Wilder likely wins a controversial decision much like the Briggs fight. That's the most likely outcome. But if Wilder makes a mistake it's over, one right hand from Big George and he'll be out cold.
