Muhammad Ali was not a great fighter

[smasher]

it wasn't a joke because that ****en moron with multiple missing chromosomes '15thround' legitimately believed it. Im not sure if this is cox, i would expect cox to produce something logical and cohesive... in this article the writer compares the Ali that fought Larry Holmes to other fighters.

I have spoken by e-mail with the author. The original article was 100% written by Monte Cox as a joke. If you want verification his e-mail address is on his website.

BUTTERFLY,

Nice change with the pictures which raises the question. Rate Ali's wives in order of do-ability. Here's mine.

1) Veronica (gotta go with a model)
2) Belinda (close to Veronica but don't like the ****** dress)
3) Sonji (cute but short, wore a wig and smoked)
4) Lonnie (distant 4th)

something i can't stand is when people say Marciano fought bums and was a horrible fighter and people will put facts out there and then you'll shoot them down, i mean sure there's a possibilty of this fighter being beat by Rocky or the other fighter may land a punch on Rocky and KO him but when somebody critises Ali everybody runs and calls them an idiot or says they're ****** for saying this, face it Ali fought bums but if somebody points out the facts everybody's right there with and excuse. Great 3 year lay-off
i understand he was standing up for his beliefs ya know what i respect the fact that if he was gunna standup he would at least takethe stripping of his title, but i mean nothing stopped him from working out in a gym in his spare time to stay in shape, everybody bitches about somebody hugging tyson's nuts or marciano's nuts or foreman's nuts, but the biggest number of nuthuggers on this forum are ali nuthuggers, the difference between Ali nut huggers and other so called "nuthuggers" are Ali nuthuggers think that Ali could beat anyone, everyone else labeled nut huggers are usally ppl that think some fighter would beat him, so that person is labeled a "that fighter" nuthugger

face it there are ppl that would beat ali (the few) and beat tyson and just because they point that out, or just because thats there opinion doesn't make them a nuthugger,

beside that the fact is you can't take much away from ali because he did fight some of the best fighters and he did win the title 3 times, and not only that what he stood for politically wasn't always the best but atleast he did with his head held up high

face it Ali fought bums

If Ali fought bums in Liston, Frazier and Foreman then Marciano fought corpses in Louis, Walcott, Moore...combined ages...106

This author is basically saying that the greatest heavyweights of the 70's and 80's are crap, because Ali beat everyone there was to be beaten around at those 2 era's.
He's got a point though, so many of his opponents had so many losses. But who else was there to fight?

very true so its not like all his opponents were superhumans

but what i meant by face i ali fought bums was that he did fight bums thats not to say all his oppoenets were bums but some of the fighters he fought were bums

yeah, but even the better of marciano's opponents weren't that special. but the better of ali's opponents were some of the greatest hw's of all-time.

Rocky actually fought alot of HOF'ers but just because Ali had better oposition doesn't mean Marciano wasn't in the same league

if you say that then your being naive

-and if i spelt nieve wrong then i'm being naive
