What if.....?

[butterfly1964]

I don't think the thrilla in Manila would have happend if Ali won FOTC. TIM was Ali's challenge to Frazier, they had fought each other 2 times before and had won 1 each, Thrilla was meant to be the decider. If Ali won the previous fights their would be no need for Manila.

yeah, that's true.

====What if muhammad ali ======

** What if you had been Neon Leon and retired after beating Ali. Wouldn't that make you the greatest?

no because the some one else could beat all and take the crown, but even if no one else beat ali, ali would still be the greatest for living up to his own expectations which is an extremly hard thing to do!

Things would have been not much different except we wouldn’t have had the epic 3rd match

What if muhammad ali beat joe frazier in FOTC? How would the course of boxing history be changed?

One technicality. The Quarry and Bonavena fights would today be remember as title defenses.
