The best fighters for H2H match-ups?

[StarshipTrooper]

This. Match the greats against all the other greats of their division and no one is getting out unscathed.

Exactly. I've always said that any ATG fighter is capable of beating any other ATG fighter in his weight class on any given night unless there's some sort of prohibitive style matchup and those are extremely rare. This is the reason reason I prefer to view these things in terms of a series.

I insist that Ali is almost unbeatable h2h, and is unbeatable in a series of 3 fights.

Care to suggest someone who you feel could best Ali 2/3?

Kenny Norton and Tim Witherspoon.

Their style are poison to outside boxers like Ali, would favor them over him


Nobody is unbeatable, everyone has a style that works against them.

Not to mention that the perfect fighter has yet to be born.....and never will be. Robinson came closest but even HE wasn't unbeatable.

I agree. Defeated Prime Tyson, Prime Tua, Prime Holyfield, and got knocked out only because of altitude. He is the greatest living Heavyweight ever and would easily defeat any heavyweight in the history of boxing.... I think I know who you're talking about and I couldn't agree more. What a masterful skilled boxer he was, the sport misses him.

Come on now, Prime Tyson? Really? Prime Holyfield, closer but still no...

Not unbeatable just who would rarely get beat.

Were talking Prime Ali here.

If an Ali past his prime and a shot version can win 2 out of 3 against Norton then so can a prime one. I know the fights were close but a Prime Ali with better reflexes would handle Norton alot better.

Jones at 168,at 175 id give a few guys a good shot at beating him

I rate Kenny Norton, but over 3 fights, Ali (did and I maintain usually would) win 2/3.

I am not saying Ali was invincible, I am saying he'd drop no more then 1 of 3 fights against anyone.
