I was sure someone would come up with this example.
But it's not a good example since Ali is holding Foreman using his arms around his neck, while the real problem with leaning is the extra weight your opponent puts on your back. So Ali wasn't putting no weight on Foreman, he was just immobilizing his movement. Maybe it gives a sore neck, but it doesn't tire you out. Ali vs Foreman was holding, not leaning.
Wlad has the perfect stature to use that dirty kind of tactics, which he does everytime he gets the chance.
I'm so sick of people who won't hear the slightest critic about the Klits (I'm not talking about you Rado).Comment

I misread the name... Frazier...
Yes, since Frazier had a small stature, Ali did put his weight on his neck in the second fight. Even if it is Ali, it's still a dirty tactic. But Ali didn't do it systematically throughout his careerlike Wlad...Comment

Ali rarely used that tactic because it wouldn't usually have worked for him, not necessarily for any ethical reason. He certainly never said anything to imply he felt any remorse for having used that tactic against Frazier.Comment

Hopkins systematically used dirty tactics throughout most of his career, so did Duran, Marciano, Saddler, and other ATGs. Maybe not the particular dirty tactics Wlad uses, but to imply that ATGs don't resort to systematic use of dirty tactics to gain an advantage is wrong. In an ideal world there would be no dirty tactics used in boxing, but this is the real world.

Dirty fighting is part of the game... But that doesn't mean a fighter should not retaliate when he tastes some of it.Comment
