Muhammad Ali or Wladimir Klitschko - Who Is The More Exciting Heavyweight?

[The Beatles]

No. I like Ali as a person, and I recognize he was a great fighter.

I just find his boxing style puts me to sleep, but watching him is healthier than using sleeping pills.

Most Americans would vote for Ali, even though he was terribly boring. He fought a lot like Kevin Johnson, with a defensive style most of the time. Ali had a similar KO ratio to Eddie Chambers.

But if they were to put aside their racism against Europeans, view the fighters objectively, OBVIOUSLY Wlad is the much more exciting fighter.

Is Tunney right???

Whoever that guy is - they are talking out their arse. Ali produced some amazing spectacles.

I watched The Rumble In The Jungle the other day and my jaw was on the floor for half the fight. Amazing - and not even his best.

Thats all about preference; opinion. Anyway, Ali was alot more exciting in my opinion.



I'd rather watch Ali talk then Wlad fight; no offense.

ali

wlad had some exciting performances in the past, but after his ko loses he takes too long and is too carefull. the man his size and punching power should be lumbering guys around the ring.

dont believe me, just as his trainer.

He may or may not have a point. Wlad has been in some entertaining fights early in his career. His problem is not his style, but his lack of proper opposition.

Ali had excellent dance partners which made for some good drama and exciting fights.

The heavyweight division right now is pretty much **** and Wlad has been able to dominate the competition at a leisurely pace and without using his full potential.
