    I think people get carried away sometimes by dismissing size so quickly, Forememan would look like a light heavyweight standing next to either Klitschko both in height and weight, Klitschkos jab and size would give Ali a tough TOUGH night in my opinion, Tyson had the perfect style to cut these big men to size but I think it comes down to a styles thing, Klitschko could beat Ali, Ali beats Tyson, Tyson beats Ali etc...., What i'm looking for is who is the one guy that beats MOST styles out there, I don't believe in this "there was one point in both ALi and Tysons careers where they were unbeatable", theres always somebody that will have your number but Which ATG could beat the most other ATG's, I'm thinking possibly Lennox Lewis right at this very moment but i've got huge question marks on his chin, could he handle bombs from either charles sonny liston or big george foreman??
    ironically i watched 3 v. klitschko fights today, danny williams, corrie sanders, and kevin johnson. after watching those fights i saw how easliy vitali got stunned by some of the punches and how easily he gassed and i thought no way in hell hed be able to beat ali. ali wasnt stationary and didnt come foward like most of v. klitschkos opponents. he fought laterally and would give u so many angles. i just think he would box vitalis ears off and possibly stop him. yea i said it! HE'D STOP HIM!!!!

      The best heavyweight ever would be Joe Frazier with 2 good eyes. He beat Ali with only one.

            that was not a prime ali he beat...

            Ali didn't have the legs he used to against either Frazier OR Foreman.

            Peep fights like Ali vs Cleveland Wiliams, and Ali Vs Sonny Liston... THAT was prime Ali, before his ban from boxing

              Ali would not be there for Wlad or Vitali to hit...

              they are clunky dinosaurs...

              Prime Ali moved like a WW and hit like HW

                I would have to say a 100% on form prime lennox lewis could take apart anyone. He had great tools in his size, body dimensions such as his ****** long reach, brain and guts.
