    Who Was Stronger: Wlad Klitschko or Muhammad Ali

    And by strength i mean punching power and just lifting type strength, who would have more strength in the clinch, or if you put them in a gym who would lift more.

    Probably Klitschko because he is bigger?

    But fights are not won by how much you can bench.

    Ali would spank Klitschko for 15 rounds like he did Terrel.

        Who is Terrell? Sorry, I only became a fan a few years ago. How long was he a HW champion for? Was he as big as Wlad, since you say Wlad was stronger because he was bigger, I assume Terrell must have been Wlad's size? Like around 250 lbs or something? I assume his KO ratio was around Wlads so in the 80% range, not some lowly 38% or something like that right?

          I do, I was curious who people on here thought was stronger, not saying who would be a better boxer or who would win, but who was the stronger guy.

            You aren't fooling anybody. You're probably from Europe and you have been a fan for a week.

              Probably Wlad.

              In the gut department Ali was much stronger though as well as he was in speed, footwork, skills, punchresistance etc.

                Huh, I just wanted to know a little bit more about this Terrell guy? I am sorry. English is second language, so I get a bit confused. Is he a ton like Wlad? 6'6 245 lbs all muscle, hw champ for over half a decade, huge power, etc...? I just never have heard him of much.

                  Skills and punch resistance I do not know? In terms of not being hit in the face and being able to keep opponents away, you have to go with Wlad? Is that not a skill? Also which Ali are we talking about, because Cassius Clay did not take a punch very good. His staggering to his corner after the Cooper his would have been stopped and called a loss, and that was a 185 lbs guy. A very similar thing happened to Wlad...staggering to a corner after being knocked down. So if you go with punch resistance you must be talking about post suspension Ali, therefore his skills were nowhere near that of Wlads, because he couldnt stop being pummelled to the face and he lost a ton of rounds where as Wlad now never loses rounds.

                  Also gut department? Wlad has never quit, always gotten up. He has never finished a match on the canvas,but rather has only lost by the ref calling it. So I dont know where you question Wlad's guts.

                  Thats not the topic though. Can you not admit that Wlad is stronger without trying to disparage him?
