    Ali used the jab. Wlad uses the jab. But yet you only give credit to one. Talk about "black power" or/and a serious issue of a hater.

      remember what happened to joe when he faced a mammoth HW with a long reach and heavy punches?

        All you see in Ali is a jab?

        What does this thread have to do with race?

          They do.

          thats why there's no one as athletic as Ali from ANY country now.

          I seriously doubt any white person being as athletic though. It's well known that Black people tend to be more athletic than White people.

            Not when you can make more money and enjoy just as much fame in other non combat sports. Unless the demand becomes greater, most athletic big men will play football or basketball.

              Wlad gets plenty of credit for his jab...it's his best punch...

                LOL at America.

                Eastern European heavyweights are superior.
                You're no better than they are. smh...

                  Ali has also beaten george foreman, joe frazier, and sonny liston.

                  Name a fighter on wlad's resume who is half the fighter of any of those guys.

                    Like they said. The eastern side didn't really get a chance to compete till recently. Also, Americans make a big deal out of a win. An American can beat one good guy and will get more credit than a non American who has busted his ass beating several top HWs in a roll.
