    How about prime Klitschko against prime Foreman?

    Foreman and Haye have about the same height. Foreman has more reach. Foreman was 10 pounds heavier.

    However, Haye was more agile and quick. Foreman was slow and predictable.

    How wins?

    Foreman. Too aggressive, to powerful, and accurate enough. After losing a few rounds on points, he hurts and likely finishes Wlad with a bomb.

    Wlad's titanium chin would be too tough of a nut to crack for poor George.

    Foreman ranks higher, was better and would KO Wlad if they were to fight. Bottom line is Foreman was just a better fighter.

    Forman would beat the living hell out of WLad. Forman gets him out of there in round two. Wlad does not have the chin to compete with true all time greats like Forman.

    If the crude, jab-less Sam Peter could have Wladimir panicking and stumbling all over the canvas, George Foreman could stop him brutally within 3.

    Wlad would faint the first time one of George's bombs flew by his head

    Wlad knocks him out in the 8th round.

    Foreman was quite slow and didn't have great technique.

    He had BAD stamina. Prime Wlad is very hard to hit and would dance around Foreman peppering him with jabs and then drop the right hand on him.

    Foreman early, only cause of Wlad's chin and Foreman being arguably the biggest puncher ever, just makes for a horrible matchup.
