    It is thread's just like this why I advise new members to steer clear of the general forum.

    The amount of good boxing minds who see this forum and never log on again is sad.

    The general forum is a fukin joke and it's threads like this which exemplify it.

    I mean *******s and *****s are bad, but atleast they limit their stupidity to the 1 boxer. You never hear them say "pac beat clottey and he way easily as good as napoles or ross"

    But with klitschko fans view can't limit it to "wlad would beat foreman" which isn't so ridiculous. They extend it to wlad's opponents also.

    I mean that muppet bubby thinks foreman is top 5 h2h, he also thinks he's no better than williams.

    So is williams also top 5 h2h?

    Wlad
    Vitali
    Peter
    Williams
    Foreman.

    What a fukin joke.

    Foreman's defence and toughness was no greater than Williams. But his offense would make him good h2h..But still he looked just like danny when he was in trouble!:lol:

    of course Foreman was better then Peter.And of course many people tend to overrate past over current fighters, that for sure, for example Marciano is so so overestimated here

    But according to this thread Foreman was way better then Peter but he wasnt as good as some posters state

    Prime foreman lost only to Ali and Young. If you want to transpose era's that's like someone losing only Vitali and Byrd in the early 00's after already being the HW champ. so like if Lewis would have lost to vitali and then Byrd in a comeback fight.

    Williams lost to...................audley harrison.

    Samuel Peter was like Ali, i know because the man said so himself. "I was like Ali." And quite frankly, I trust Peter more than you homos.

    He would have roped the dope, stuck and move, lost Foreman in that REAL AFRICAN groove.

    I know, really it reads like this:

    Power=Foreman..we can't argue that.
    Speed=Peter has the quickest hands since Patterson
    Chin=Peter was never stopped by a skinny homo like Young
    Skill=Peter...remember the Samuel Shimmy? Boxing as art.
    Chin II=Peter still has the edge.
    Resume=Peter. James Toney is the greatest, he KOed Evander(something Tyson or Lennox could not do) and was ducked by both K-Brothers.
