    Lol.
    Not only he would not stop foreman but it would be him the one who would get stopped . he fought much more aggressively than young and it favours Foreman

    The George Foreman of the 1970's, as I said in my previous post smothered an opponent with a whirlwind of punches, for example, the Joe King Roman fight in 1973 and the Ken Norton fight in 1974. Buster Douglas trying to be aggressive against George would have been his demise.

    good questions. No, but Buster could have hit George a little, but George would land in a couple of rounds and probably knock him out.
