    I think Galento would be ranked in the top 10 today. He would be a modern day David Tua, except better and harder punching.

    I disrespect no man willing to step into a boxing ring more than once. Any man that has to know in the back of their mind at any given moment theirs a chance they could get completely embarrassed or worse killed yet still have the intestinal fortitude to step into a boxing ring against a opponent that has the same fears would never get disrespected by me, because I've been there.
    However, theirs fantasy ,reality and making a very educated guess using all evidence available on a subject.
    The fantasy is a hypothetical match between Foreman and Galento, the reality when one looks at the successes of their careers their is no comparison between the ATG in Foreman and his physical advantages and Galento , a very average fighter whose biggest claim to fame is he knocked down J Louis, which pissed him off and Louis annihilated him for it.
    The educated guess is based on all evidence surrounding this hypothetical match-up. That evidence would suggest Foreman would destroy Galento early. Very early.............

    If you think that David Tua gives Foreman a good scrap, then you should think that Tony Galento does as well.

    Well some people who thinks Foreman wrecks Galento would say Tua gives Foreman a good scrap.

    So what? You might just find they believe Tua is better than Galento.....but you know that. I understand you're just trolling for input that Tua is way better than Galento etc etc etc blah blah blah but it's incredibly predictable and some might think ridiculously boring.
