    Who do you think would've beaten Ali if not Lewis or Tyson?

      How about Lennox Lewis vs Ali... that's a more realistic matchup... Lennox would stand a far better chance to defeat Ali then Tyson ever could... I admit Tyson was exciting and he was a great heavyweight but he wasn't even the second best of his time... holyfield and lewis were way better... Tyson's reign only lasted 2 years... if a fighter's reign only lasted 2 years to begin with then you weren't that great b/c as soon as somebody exposed you... you were done... and that's not a mark of a true champion... Ali was a champion in like 3 different generations...
      first off u talk like ali was unbeatable...the guy was a heavyweight with no power...tyson stands a big chance at beating him just like frazier did...and lennox lewis WOULD beat ali

          Who do you think would've beaten Ali if not Lewis or Tyson?

          Joe Louis ( the best boxer - puncher ever )
          also Dempsey would give Ali an unholy beating

            1-tyson was great in his prime and anyone who said they wouldn have loved to see prime ali vs prime tyson is a liar

            2-ali would have owned L.Lewis..then made him a *****..before ko'ing him all in about 6 rounds..i mean forman would have eaten Lewis alive and spit him out

            3-our time tyson:is kinda overrated but his power till this day is top 3..so u cant talk bad about him all the way

                      tyson wasnt over rated, he may be now, but in his prime he would have taken ali.... ali struggled against frazier, who isnt half the fighter tyson was... IMO.... end of the day tyson could knock anyone out, even butterbean lol
