    Word.
    People need to understand that Ali wasnt talking about any mythical P4P stuff, he meant he was the greatest heavyweight fighter of all time.
    All the people mentioning "what a personality he was" get on my nerves a little bit. Lots of great HWs were great personalities, but putting it that way makes it sound like his resume as a fighter alone isnt what makes him great.

        No... I rate Robinson and Louis higher. Most educated people who live and breathe boxing would say that Robinson was better.

          Ali is the biggest icon in the sport but he wasn't the best boxer ever! ****, i think Lennox Lewis would beat him IMO.

          SRL for me.
