Who could beat a prime George Foreman?

[KidDynamite86]

Although most of these would be hypothetical, which list of fighters could be able to beat a prime George Foreman? Keep it 1920- please

Muhammad Ali DID...but the rest of my list I have a hard time thinking of. Sonny Liston is all that comes to mind.

You took the words right out of my mouth. I only have Ali and Liston ranked above him as well.

im pretty sure this could.

A Foreman uppercut would bend that in half as well!

Foreman is overrated. You can't possibly pick anyone to beat him, you'll get eaten alive around here.

On a serious note, i have some people in mind that could.

Boxers:
Ali
Holmes
Young
Lewis
Louis

Sluggers/Swarmers:
Liston
Ibeabuchi
Tua
Tyson
Vitali(i aint kidding)
Lyle

Some others have a shot aswell. Remember, Foreman is human, he could be outslugged or outboxed. And the topic is: who could beat a prime George Foreman.

I would Give Joe Louis, Gene Tunney, maby Max Baer on a good night

Pre 1920 Jim Jeffries and Jim Corbett maybe Jack Johnson

Foreman ain't losing to a 180 lb guy in a thong.

Dempsey, Firpo, Louis, Lyle, Celeveland Williams, Tyson (uphill battle for him), Marciano (same), Max Baer, Johnson, Ali, Liston, Quarry, Langford, Bowe, Lewis, Holyfield (maybe) Vitali Klitschko, Wladimir Klitschko, David Tua, Samuel Peter, Ruddock, Shavers, the list goes on and on for guys I would give a chance at beating Foreman.

Who would I favor against him? Entirely different question and of course the list is a lot shorter. Liston, Dempsey, Ali, Holmes, and Louis would have the best chances IMO.

I agree here.

pretty much all these guys have a good chance at beating Foreman.
