Ali would never be boring, he was like a bigger SRR. Anyone who finds Ali boring, should watch some other sports or go to a boxing gym and learn a thing or two about boxing.

Most of Ali's figths were boring when he was fighting guys who weighted 215 pounds.
Ali would have been considered a feather fisted safety first fighter in this eraComment

Ali the greatest HW champ
His wins over foreman and frazier mean more than vitalis and wladimirs victories combined and I'm a klit fan.
The win over frazier in the Phillippines means more than any win of any boxer in the history of boxing..he couldn't breath there was no air conditioner the arena had a roof..that showed the spirit of a warrior.
These **** suckers who discredit Ali have no idea about boxing.Comment

To quote the crazy Roger Mayweather, people don't know **** about boxing.
Which is why you get ignorant comments like "Hagler was a brawler", "Leonard was a runner", "Leonard was scared of Pryor and didn't give him a chance", and crap like that.
Ali was one of the greatest fighters of all-time, but making entertaining fights on a consistent basis was not his speciality. People bring up his "Fights of the Year" against Doug Jones & Sonny Liston. Well, if you actually took the time to sit through those fights, you would know that they were far from fan-friendly fights.
Ali was involved in two of the greatest fights of all-time, but was no Matthew Saad Muhammad. He did brilliant things in the ring but you had to sit through a lot of boring stuff to get to it.
Seriously, has anyone actually sat through all of his title fights in the 1960s and said "wow, he was one exciting fighter!".
It's more like "he did some amazing things despite many of his fights being slow-paced".
I make highlight videos all the time because I am a ****ing boxing nerd. Which means I have seen many Ali fights in full, in fact, far too many than I care to see.
Ali was not a consistently entertaining fighter to watch.Last edited by Thread Stealer; 08-07-2011, 05:49 AM.Comment

He would definitely be considered boring by the people who consider Floyd and other types of boxers boring.Comment

cassius/ali fights were never boring....
his boxing skills encompass a matador's killer instinct when he gets the openings and chance to put down an opponent...
and it would be unrealistic to believe that cassius/ali was not aware that there were opponents that he could not knock down or knock out..
still, he fought them, as well...the trademark of a great champion/fighter..
opponents he could not put down he enrolled to a boxing clinic...
a boxing clinic boxing fans could highly appreciateComment
