      cmon guy's Ali was certainly the greatest charachter in boxing,the greatest and getting into opponent's head's,He had a huge impact on boxing and I I think he was great but as far as a technical boxer Ali was no way the greatest..
      Im gona get slated for this I konw but Ali is overrated by many people,he was a great boxer with fantactic speed and reflex's for a HW but people ,make him out to be preatically unbeatable at times......
      For me joe louis,jack johnson,sugar ray robinson and larry holmes were better,hey its just my opinion of course I could be wrong..
      does anyone agree Ali is slightly overrated by the media/by people in general?

          i'll go with ali despite his technical weaknesses that robinson didn't have.

          just on the basis that his resume is insane.

              i read some articles that say some of ali's fights were rigged, and he also goit a lot of gift decisions, he also used an illegal nasal spray in his corner against some bum that he almost got ko'd by

              tho the nasal thing i saw as real because of video proof the rest is just what i read.

                Why not watch the sugar ray robinson documentary?

                Ali himself said; I'm the best HW fighter ever but the best p4p fighter is and always will be sugar ray robinson..all the footwork Ali was doing was because of sugar ray robinson..Ali loved the guy.

                    I would put Lennox Lewis/Mike Tyson as the best. If these guys had met Ali, he would have been knocked out.

                    I still think Tyson in hes prime was better then Lennox, But Lennox was better as he bacame older.
