    I think it would be an absolute war. My guess is Foreman lasts the pace better and emerges victorious.

    I'd pick Fedor by ripping Foreman's arm off and beating Vitali with it.

    foreman would destroy him however in germany even if foreman had him down in every round providing kliticho made it to the bell i reckon he would get the decision 10-9 everyround with a couple of 10[8s just for good measure

    Like Foreman won two times against Schulz despite loosing every round. Was in germany. Please say something good or shut up...

    Bad decisions also happen in the UK, the US and everywhere else in the world...

    Foreman never really had the technical boxing skill in his prime which he never needed anyway as he could pound out physically overmatched opponents.Foremans walk forward style would leave him open for Vitalis right which he would zero in on him with the whole night.Against Vitali he faces a bigger more cerebral,skilled version of himself therefore i have to go with Vitali by seventh or eighth round battering..Lennox would demolish prime Foreman the same way and Foremn knows this.

    Yeah, Actually very easy answer:D Just think its getting a bit boring to keep bringing up these "Supermen of the 70 would destroy any of the Klits today" Why not try to imagine, to bring the Easteuropeans HW back to the 70" and see how boxing history would have looked today! I`m not saying HW is a good division now.. but the comparisons would be more fair that way!

    Tiny Forman don't stand a chance....after all he's only 6 foot 3 and a skinny 220 pounds......ain't got much of a jab either. And not particularly fast either for some one so thin.:nut

    Back in his day he was Huge....but that was way back then....today he's medium to medium small and thin. And lacks reach.....reach is very important....but so many don't even know that any more....

    But look how he fared when he was older.


    Lets see if Haye can do well versus Klitschko. Haye has similiar size to Foreman, similiar style in a sense of the big pucnhes from different angles.

    Honest opinion!

    Foreman could destroy both Klits on the same night and probably change the quality of their lives for the worse!

    But he'd punch a hole straight through Vitali's rib cage!

    I am with the Klitschkos - arguments are already old by now.
    Everybody who starts arguing about Klitschko vs. *** and claims Klitschko would lose (right after a Klitschko WIN) shows signs of a sore loser and a rather simple psychology.

    Foreman would stop him in the mid rounds Vitali would make George look bad for spells.

    How about Ali versus Lyackovic?
