Who has Muhammad Ali beating that makes people think he stand a chance against WK

[ChopperRead]

the 60 70 80 were nothing compared to todays era. How many soviet boxers fought in those eras?

Today we got boxers from every part of the world. So the talent pool is much higher.

And like I said all the boxers Ali beat would be considered midgets in todays era. Ali would stand no chance against Wlad.

Many boxing fans live in the past, unfortunately. I already stated my thoughts on why it's impossible to look accurately at Clay/Ali in these times.

As for what would happen, I think Clay would be in tough against Lewis or the K-Bros.

Wlad to me is the most vulnerable of the three because he in the past has not reacted well to being flurried, and Clay would no doubt launch a barrage of speedy punches at him, and might be able to get him floundering around a bit.

Can't see Clay having any chance against Lennox or Vitali.

But ultimately it's all conjecture, and we'll never know for sure.

I would love to hear how Wlad beats Ali. I seriously can't picture it.

1ST ROUND: JAB, JAB, JAB, OVERHAND RIGHT

2ND ROUND: JAB, JAB, JAB, OVERHAND RIGHT

3RD ROUND: JAB, JAB, JAB, OVERHAND RIGHT

4TH ROUND: JAB, JAB, JAB, OVERHAND RIGHT

5TH ROUND: JAB, JAB, JAB, OVERHAND RIGHT

6TH ROUND: JAB, JAB, JAB, OVERHAND RIGHT

7TH ROUND: JAB, JAB, JAB, OVERHAND RIGHT

8TH ROUND: JAB, JAB, JAB, OVERHAND RIGHT

9TH ROUND: JAB, JAB, JAB, OVERHAND RIGHT

10TH ROUND: JAB, JAB, JAB, OVERHAND RIGHT

11TH ROUND: JAB, JAB, JAB, OVERHAND RIGHT

12TH ROUND: JAB, JAB, JAB, OVERHAND RIGHT

Wlad's dynamic & versatile skillset leads him to a wide UD victory.

It would be by far the easiest fight of Wlad's career.

I think Wlad vs Ali is a 50:50 fight, but I am pretty sure Wlad would whoop all the other guys from the Ali era like Frazier, Norton, Jimmy Young, Chuvalo, Lyle, Shavers. Foreman might have a decent chance cause of his power but I would still favor Wlad

and lets not forget in Ali's era allot of fights were fixed.

I wouldnt be suprised if 70% of Ali's wins were fixed.

How many fights were fixed? Can we get some statistics and links to back this claim?

sounds 'bout right.

I've always thought it was funny when people try to act like Ali fought nothing but midgets. When you compare their significant wins, you'll see that Ali fighting midgets is an urban myth.

Ali
George Foreman- 6'4"
Ken Norton-6'3"
Ron Lyle-6'3"
Joe Frazier-5'11"

Wlad
Haye- 6'3"
Sam Peter- 6'2"
Tony Thompson-6'6"
Chambers-6'1"

Aside from Thompson/Frazier there's virtually no difference in height. Ali was beating guys who are the same size as most of Wlad's current day competition. A huge difference however, is that the fighters on Ali's resume were alot more skilled and were in shape.

and lets not forget in Ali's era allot of fights were fixed.

I wouldnt be suprised if 70% of Ali's wins were fixed.

U has a point in the beginning, but this just ruined everything

[tennis-legend]

i think ali is a much better boxer and fighter

i think ali would outpoint both klitchsko's because his chin would be too much for either puncher

styles make boxing

i dont rate tyson in the same league as Ali but i would say in a match up- tyson would probably Knock him down several times- and maybe even KO

tyson ali- is like federer nadal

ali's weakness (which frasier and cooper exploited) was his hands being low and not seeing a left hook coming
its also tyson's best shot- i could see tyson landing it on ali

federer's only weakness is his backhand against heavy topspin- nadal's best shot- his lefty topspin forehand goes naturally into federer's weakness

[Phil Ivey]

Same WLAD who couldn't KO a career cruserweight ? who happens to also be his best win LOL.

[CaRnAgEViOLaToR]

Ali would have ****in embarrassed Wlad....Ali is a diff level fighter....
