First off its Wladimir Klitschko younger brother and Vitali Klitschko older better brother.
Foreman never really fought anybody bigger then him in his prime and he was pretty sloppy, Wladimir has a wicked hard fast jab, better then Foremans and he would have a tighter defense but his lack of killer instinct and weak chin would be his undoing. He might make Foreman respect him for a few rounds and may even shake Big George up but I cant see Foreman retreating, I think after a few rounds of a cautious Wladimir Foreman starts letting go and getting brave and crashes Wlad into the canvass at some point in the mid rounds.
Foreman Ko 6
Against Vitali I don't think he does to great. Vitali appears to have an almost indestructible chin If Lennox's right hands couldn't shake him I dont see anything Foreman can throw hurts him either. It would be a give and take fight for the first half but Foreman was not known for his stamina back in the day and would start to fade around the 6th or 7th round, Vitali would finish him down the stretch.
Vitali Ko 10
I think the older Foreman would actually fair better against Vitali then Young George.
Wlad isnt mobile fighter and the guys who KOed him or dropped him where shorter than Foreman and didnt punch nearly as hard plus no other fighter Wlad faced had the jab of Foreman so it would be easier for him to land power shots if set up by his jab. And because Wlad wont tower over Foreman like he does most of his small opponents, he wont be able to clinch as much (prime Foreman did know how to fight in the clinch)
Wlad is an answer to today's heavyweights. Foreman would be leagues ahead of Wlad overall and would handle him easy. Wlad never learned how to fight going backwards or off the ropes. Foreman by KO within 5.
Who TF is Vladimir then?
Edit: Oh it WAS a typo then? So I didn't need the TD did I?
Heavyweight Boxing fans,
Disregard the eras of each man:
1. George 'Big George' Edward Foreman could break & perforate heavy bags back-in-the-day, standing 6 foot 3 inches with a 82 inch reach.
....but that was 'THEN', ....
2. Today Vitali Volodymyrovych Klychko stands 6 foot 7 inches with an 79 inch reach. He is the currently retired, older brother of current heavyweight champ Wladimir of modern day.
If Foreman was in his prime (2013) and was to slated to meet Vladimir 'Dr. Ironfist' Klitschko ALSO in his prime (aka not 42 yrs),
One Question......
Q 1. Would Prime Foreman be able to exchange blows with a prime Dr. Ironfist?
and Vice-Versa? Could George handle Vlad's 4 inch height advantage?
My hunch: Foreman takes the TKO?
