Who Beats Foreman pre Ali

You don't want sluggers to deal with Foreman. You want clever boxer types and movers. Guys with speed and accuracy that could use their feet and tie up when necessary.

 

I never favoured him I said possible opponent who could be a troubling style for Foreman he was a counter puncher with a good track record vs punchers he defeated Shavers, Lyle, Foster, easily. Yes I do think Foreman would struggle with a prime Quarry there's a small chance Quarry could outbox him but I'd heavily favour Foreman.

 

Decent yes, maybe, but nobody in his first 37 fights that was a genuine stand out as a 50/50 fight. His opponents records are pretty dreadful with one or two exceptions. That's not revisionism it is a matter of record.
