    Jack Johnson would beat Ali

    I think Jack johnson would outsmart and outtough Ali. Jack johnson was just a too tough son of a *****. Jack Johnson is also VERY underrated...

    If anything Johnson generally gets over rated, Ali imo wins a decision, he's got the intelligence and tools to prevent Johnson from fighting his fight and trying too rough Ali up on the inside, if Johnson decides too fight at range he'll be up against someone superior too him at it with more range and much more speed and I don't feel Johnson's parrying would play much of a role as Ali has the speed and combinations too off set it, safe too say Johnson isn't knocking him out either.

      Johnson has "guts", a thing you cant measure. Johnsons willpower will overpower Alis skill........

        Jack Johnson would have no chance at beating Ali. No Fighter of Johnsons era could win against Ali or any top Heavyweight since Ali 1st won the title

          Joe Louis fight is slightly in favor of Ali but a Louis win wouldn't exactly be out of question.

            Ali beats Jack Johnson with brains and speed, makes him look silly to a UD! Easy Bet.

              The pre-fight build up would be a thing of legend.

                If somebody who knows no ill really - comes to a Palais de Danse, and dances around the place - or ***els his heels in the air 'cause he's a Celt. Why should he go down and how do you forgive yourself because he's a better dancer?

                  I'd say Ali was as gutsy a fighter who has ever lived, both in and out of the ring. Just my opinion.

                    Chuvalo had all the guts in the book. He could never come close to "overpowering" Ali's skill. Your logic is flawed.
