keep in mind ali was considerably smaller than wlad and lennox.
How would ali have fought wlad or lenox?

lets makes sure we are all clear on what ali we use when talking all time greats. ali pre ban dances all night and wins easy decisions over both. possibly stopping wlad. not even close. beats them via superior counterpunching and yes he would outjab wlad all night. having the better jab is not simply about being bigger/taller/reach adv. ali is a better boxer plain and simple he would outjab both of them.Comment

ali was only 5'8 180lbs and slow as f@ck i dont know how the self proclaimed greatest would overcome vlad or lennox...Comment

Lets say what the fans want to hear. Ali would dance around the robots, counter-punch those slow robots. Lewis and Wlad are so slow, slow stinky fighters. They can't beat the greatest fighter ever! Its not about size its about heart and skills pay the bills.Comment

hand speed and clinching. not saying he would win, but he would probably dance on the outside and then try to smother and shoe-shineComment

Ali would lay on the ropes and hope that Wlad or Lewis would get tired of punching in the head... that would probably be the only strategy that has any possibility of working.
Wlad or Lewis own Ali all day and all night, it wouldn't be a contest. In his best days, Ali was no faster than Gayevid and certainly wasn't more powerful than Gayevid. Ali had more technical skill than Gayevid but they were about the same size (height, reach, weight). You saw how easily Wlad took care of Gayevid, he would do the same against Ali, except he would KO Ali because Ali was no punk like Gayevid, he wouldn't have flopped to the ground every time before the clinch. Ali would actually fight Wlad, so he would have gotten KOd by Wlad.
I know that's not the answer nostalgic Americans like to hear but that's the truth.Comment

If a little 180 pound white Guy put Ali in his back only to be saved from the torn glove sham and 205 pound Fraizer deck him than what do you think a 6'7 250 Klitchko and a 6'5 250 Lewis would do to him. Running and throw jabs won't work and these two guys they were to smart for the Rope a DopeComment

Well, considering his reach was the same as Vitali's and almost the same as Wlad's, he would be able to stay outside and fight the fight he always did, which is stay at range, use his ridiculous quickness, and pepper the sh** out of either Klitschko with his jab and quick combinations.
They'd be pretty much helpless.Comment
