At Cruiserweight, the young Foreman could probably make the weight 24-48 hours before the fight and be back at 215-20 by fight time. I don't think that Calzaghe at Cruiserweight would have the power to hold Foreman off or make him respect him. At Cruiserweight I'd take Foreman, at LHW, Foreman wouldn't make the weigh-in.

Maybe if Foreman DID get to LHW, and that teenage boy with no boxing who
was the 175lb Foreman fought Calzaghe..then sure... Joe wins :)
