Who is the most intelligent boxer?

[The Great Shark]

There's a lot of different types of intelligence. Ali wasn't academically smart but he was quick-witted in a general conversational sense. You could also have someone who's well-read but not very intelligent in an IQ sense. You have people with high IQs who have little common sense. You have people who appear to be fools but are much more clever than people think. It's a very misunderstood subject I think.

This poster makes some great points. You can't judge a book by it's cover, as well as what's in it.. if you know what I mean.

Meldrick Taylor. I think he spelled his name right once.

Foreman.

Quit the sport with his health, unlike his closest peers, made $300 Million after it. He’s smart.

Piper’s claim to fame was having the highest IQ of any sports figure past or present.

I think Pipers might have dropped down a few points after the Benn fight.
