Old George Foreman today

He'd lose to Usyk pretty comfortably.

Fury is all wrong for Old George as he can just run all fight and jab him off as Old George was quite slow.

 

Foreman doesn't want to engage with the best of this era, at any point other than his prime, give or take.

 

Loses to most, has a punchers chance against everyone. I think he'd beat guys like Bakole and Chisora. Could manage to outpoint Hrgovic but I wouldn't favour him. Everybody else in the top 10 beats him. Usyk, Fury, Joshua, Dubois, Parker, Kabayel. Ajagba could probably stick and move to a decision like he did against Bakole. Big George had enough power and craft to score a sneaky KO against guys like Joshua, Dubois and Ajagba though. Could maybe catch Fury if he turns up in bad form mentally or physically, otherwise he loses 12-0.

 

In his prime with his style he’d be best suited to staying at 200lbs and dunking it out with Jai… lot of mileage on 70s George to fight guys 40-60lbs heavier all the time, there’s a reason he was always the “big guy” in the 80s-90s In his bouts he understood the advantage.

 

I’d favor Foreman to stop either Dubois or Zhang. Foreman’s ring experience and ring activity during his comeback made him a guy not to take lightly despite his age.

if you take Usyk out of the equation Big George has a very good chance of becoming a champ again.

 

Unless he gets that stupid idea he had for the Ngannou fight by coming in at 280 pounds with the goal of outmuscling and knocking Foreman out. He will get a visit to the shadow realm for his efforts.

 

Knocks out the slow hittable plodders, Usyk and the lighter weighted more mobile versions of Fury and Parker would outbox him though. Pre-Dubois AJ likely knocks him out

 

I’m sure this thread was done a few weeks ago.

he’d probably score a highlight reel KO of Mike Perez.

 

Yep although Old George lost to worse fighters than Tyson Fury.

 

World of difference between outmuscling a guy the size of Godzilla who knows how to wrestle and skinny prime 217lbs GF lol… oh it’s old GF even easier work.

 

After watching how easily Usyk dispatched Dubois the other week, I think even Old George stops Dubois. Daniel is just too easy to hit, and old George punches harder than Usyk.

 

He'd be a nightmare for Usyk because Usyk can't stop him. Hes got to go the whole 12 rounds all while Foreman uses his brain to come up with a trap.

Champ Foreman loses cause he lost his power over the course of a layoff like Louis before him. Champ Foreman was relying purely on his chin, memory and intellect and thats not enough. But what Foreman had earlier in his comeback would be enough.

Zhangs the one guy Foreman always beat. He can't crack Foremans chin and he can't win rounds. So what can he do? Its one of the reasons the famed "Zhang v Foreman" thread was so puzzling. Zhangs that David Tua guy Foreman could have beaten in his early 50s when every other elite fighter was off the table.

 

Usyk runs rings around him, I can't see old George doing too great there.

He stops Wilder and AJ in 2. Ruiz loses SD.
