Muhammad Ali, was he ever in a street fight outside the ABC television studio, where Joe Frazier jumped on him?
Fighters you couldnt imagine being in a streetfight

Ali did have a weakness for women, but generally avoided the bar and club scenes. Once he acquired an entourage you couldn't get anywhere near him if you were menacing.Comment

Tszyu is a very classy respectful guy I knew someone who lived near him he said he was niceComment

Wladimir said afterwards that showing restraint then was the hardest thing he's ever had to do. If he had cracked Chisora, it would have cost his brother (among others) millions of dollars. And I've never seen WK as animated as he was after the fight. I expect fights between Vitali-Haye and Wladmir-Chisora before the end of this year. The brothers really want them and they'll do what it takes to get them made. Especially WK-Chisora because Vitali will be out of action and Haye is a chickenspit.Last edited by Someone88; 02-28-2012, 10:03 AM.Comment

manny was a Philippine street kid. i'm sure
he scrapped out of necessity in his youth. i'm sure there are very few fighter who never scrapped in the streets or fought as youth. i can only think of very few. i know martinez said in an interview that he was a passive kid and never fought.
on pacquiao: like many rich/famous and powerful people i'm sure he would be very unlikely to engage in a fight. however, if you somehow got a shot on him (say a sucker punch,) i have no doubt he would smash you back with a combination before he even thought about it.
back in the day (circa 1923,) chisora and haye would have finished their beef outside of a british pub
I read a story about him getting called out to fight by some drunk guy all Marciano said was let's just have a drink together the guy got embarrassed so yep Marciano was that niceComment

lewis was a notorious street fighter growing up, in fact thats why his mom sent him to canada. but he kept it up there too, until he started boxing.
rahman ofcourse was the same way but in a worse way. still he only took lewis down cuz he wasnt expecting it and he couldnt do anything to him anyways. i think lewis.. scratch that.. i KNOW lewis could handle himself in a streetfight. maybe not on the same level as mike tyson, sonny liston, george foreman etc but not far behind.Comment

I dont think he would be a natural "Fighter" like say a Tyson or a Liston but at that size and with that amount of strength and power i sure wouldnt wanna try my chances with him!Comment
