    Definitely like the second version of Foreman after his initial retirement. He's deliberate like Foreman, stands upright like Foreman while throwing either hand with his shoulders not hunched like a normal fighter. He uses the left hook to the body in the same way that Foreman did---to shepherd the fighter into position to eat a straight right. Extremely deliberate and calm in the face of incoming fire.

    His footwork is similar as well, economical and seemingly-lacksadaisical but good at cutting off the ring and forcing the opponent to engage.

    Foreman WISHED he had that kind of handspeed though. Eddie's handspeed is about a dozen notches faster. If Foreman had that kind of handspeed, he would have been much more successful. The only punch that Foreman still had speed on was the jab, but it really softened guys up for the slower pitches.

    Eddie's style reminds me of Napoles.
