Fighters you couldnt imagine being in a streetfight

Joe Louis is a good pick, he would refuse a streetfight, Luckily for the other guy, Joe would have cleaned up the streets if he had the inclination. There have been many fighters from th 90's on who would have been far less successful in streetfights, I think all the Mr/ Slicks who cruised their way to many points victories wouldnt make good streetfighters, nothing like a KO artist when it comes to the street.Comment

Even a trained boxer would have to be crazy to get into a street fight. I mean, in the ring you have a mouthpiece, hand wraps and gloves and none of that on the street. One punch connects and a guy could break his hand or lose a tooth. Plus you have one minutes breaks after a 3 minute round.
Someone was telling me some quote from Ali where he was asked when he was active if someone challenged him on the street, what would he do and he said he's run, probably because of the reasons I just mentioned. I think Ali said because anyone that wants to fight on the streets has to be crazy and he wouldn't want to mess with that or something. Is this true or someone's shoddy memory relaying an untrue story to me?Comment
