    You are trying to claim foreman had the same chin? The defeat to young only shows how bad Foreman of the 70's was to actual thinking opponents,with somewhat boxing ability to clinch and pick periods to box.so answer this could J. young knock down 90's foreman at any point / any year? Yes or no?


    You also are manipulating Moorer as referance to the 90's being weaker when in fact he wasnt the dominating champion and foreman had a better chin thats why you wont say yes to the above question.

    The only reason Wlado is in an awkward position is because he put himself in one. At least Fury created some space to throw the uppercut.
    Wlado is doing his usual huggy bear routine and instead of releasing Jennings and taking a step back to create the space to throw punches he throws while drapped all over him resulting in a total failure.
    This is why Wlado is completely useless and why Fury made an utter fool out of him.

    Any boxer can knock anyone down with the right punch. That's one of the worst questions you've ever asked in this site.

    I am sure the answer to this is no, but I'll ask anyways just in case: do you think 90's foreman was better than 70's foreman?

    Any boxer can knock any boxer down with the right punch.

    Surely you don't think Foreman was better after his comeback?

    I don't understand how you can disagree with either of those.

    Don't be stupid. Foreman was a mess against Young. He just stood there and let him win. Did you even watch the fight? He was extremely gunshy.

    Zaire Foreman would have killed Young.

    Well you already answered that question when picked no in in referance would J.young knock foreman of 90's down? because saying yes would show YDKSAB. So there you have it.

    Yes, and that's why he lost. He tried boxing Young and failed miserably. If Foreman jumped on Young and pressed him against the ropes like he did to Ali, Young would have been dead. You know that damn well. Young had no firepower to keep Foreman off him and Zaire Foreman was too good at cutting of the ring to give Young space to box.

    Young didn't win, Foreman lost.
