      I say Clay, but the Muhammad Ali we knew would say "I'd find a way to win." lol

      I never really thought about it before.

          A 1967 Cassius Clay would beat a 1974 Muhammad Ali by UD

          I believe Clay wins 10-5

            Ali said after the Foreman fight that his former self would have comfortably outpointed him.

                I tend to agree with Ali's own words.

                  Cassius Clay(or 1960's Ali) was a special almost unique fighter for his size.Muhammad ali was incredibly tough with a legendary chin and nothing much else really,I don't think Muhammad Ali was that smarter a fighter than even a young Cassius Clay either

                  He would have struggled in the earlier rounds no matter how quit his former self was.Foremans ability to cut off a ring during his prime was incredible
