Hard to say. His views and attitudes were largely shaped by his time period. So it depends if those would change were he brought up in this time period. It's hard to believe that he'd be all '******' and 'street', but the fact is that he was still a very charasmatic and humorous man and people are drawn to that.

The racial situation now is different to what it was then, however i still think he would get plenty of heat from the media.Comment

I would love it if Ali were around 2day, he was a man who stood up for what he believed in, he also talked **** and could back it up and in todays heavyweight division he would pound every one, maybe he wouldnt get as famous cuz there would me no Fraizer or Forman for him to fight, i doubt Klitschko would give him a fight like that, he would own the division easily.Comment

he's the 60's-70's floyd mayweather.
yea he would be hated.
when floyd retires he will be liked by alot of people, look what happened to ali, some people disliked him because he talked so much ****. and now he's one of the most known people in the world and in boxing.Comment

i think he would be hated, but mainly because most people will say that on the hw division there is no competition, something like what happens to "the line" dixon on the last rocky movie :PComment

Floyd will never get the love Ali gets....Comment

Ali is'nt small and he also faced some big fighters who were big punchers like Foreman, Liston, Frazier etc. I dont see any HW beating him.Comment

I agree that without racism and segregation and all of that Ali would be hated. Plus with the Nation of Islam now! That would not go over well today. He also talks more than Mayweather and at least I don't like him.Comment
