I have noticed that if you look at both these fighters, and analyze them you start to realize they are actually pretty similar fighters in the way they are very fast, can counter punch, fight inside and outside, and more often than not take a bit of a beating before coming out and winning the fight.
You look at Muhammad Ali’s record and almost all of his fights were in the later rounds, rounds 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 were all when he seemed to come alive and start to fight. With Mayweather it’s not so late but still looking at the later end of the fight rounds 7, 8, 9 10, and 11 etc.
And when I say beating I don’t mean a complete one sided might, I mean maybe taking some punches and not being at their best – mayweather in the first 3 rounds with Hatton, and Ali with Foreman – all though slightly bit more of a beating might be an understatement. But you see what I mean, who would win a pound for pound contest you will all have your opinions on the matter, so who do you think is better at “Boxing” as an art, and in general fighting terms. I mean you just have to look on google, or yahoo at both fighters to see alot of pictures are very similiar in the way they land punches and counter etc.
