Soviet commies got their ass beat during that era. The end.
OH!
Non non my friends!
You misunderstand, I make point small.
Soviets are not the only commies. Boxing as a global sport doesn't actually happen until the late 90s. Who was the Chinese top HW? How about Uzbek? Get me? Ali was fantastic but only over America, UK, Canada, Mexico, etc. Plenty to respect but in my opinion it's like apples and oranges comparing the world title picture. There was no top Chinese like Zhang because of racism and politics. China has proven that now. Same for much of Africa, west asia, and south east asia.

More clear I hope. Even if we disagree.
Muhammad Ali was fantastic in the 1960 Rome Olympics, beating Soviet Gennadiy Shatkov as well as Zbigniew Pietrzykowski from the Polish People’s Republic on his way to winning the gold medal.

Yes, let us pretend the west in the northern hemisphere equates to the world despite population sizes.
