I love Foreman, but holmes by wide decison, possibly late round stoppage.

Holmes by UD. I like Foreman but he'd be eating that jab all night long as he didn't have the speed to get past it imo, and in case Holmes did happen to get cracked a good shot by Foreman, I think he had the chin and mental fortitude to survive a shaky round or two.

Holmes doesnt get the credit he deserves a lot of the time.
Foreman would struggle to land clean for much of this fight, Holmes via wide UD.

Holmes, and I think it would have been pretty one sided too.

Holmes relatively easy! Foreman would as always have a puncher's chance, but it would be Holmes 99 out of 100 times back in 78!!!!!!

foreman ko, similar to tyson holmes.

to support my claim foreman blew away norton who lost by SD against holmes.

Id have to go with Holmes but would not count out a Foreman bomb landing.....

Foreman crushes ali, to support my claim, Foreman blew away frazier and norton who both had wins against ali.

ali was unique and holmes in comparison was easy to hit.

norton made the fight against holmes in 78 really close by cutting off the ring.........i think foreman would cut off the ring against holmes much better than norton did.....really making larry fight....also larry didnt move side too side like ali very much (more flat footed).....i think foreman would trap him on the ropes.....ps i think holmes would have a hard time with foremans big heavy jab.....and off set him.....foreman by tko:smoke
