    Lol besides the real stand out **********, everyone knows that Ali was better Joe and that's cause he won a 2/3 battle with him and we don't need to draw on hypothetical situations and point the finger as to who's fault it is the fight didn't happen. I can imagine in 30 years from now, if that 2012 bull don't really happen lol, *******s and *****s still going at it! Nowadays supporters of Ali and Joe have mutual respect for one another and know they both were warriors and amazing athletes.

        But it did and if that were the case it's it's beyond either fighters control. Unlike this may and pac rubbish.

          Frazier needs to stop ducking Ali. Ali needs to stop ducking Frazier.

          Oh wait, they actually fought each other 3 times. Unlike some.

            Well you'd have guys like Hugh Grant saying Ali isn't GOAT because he didn't throw body punches.

                There'd be a lot less to argue about. Joe and Ali actually fought each other.

                  And Ali is inaccurate because jabs don't count.

                    Could anyone see Ali getting su****ious about Joe knocking all of these large heavyweights out and asking more testing for PEDs if they were around today?

                      **** that, Ali only beat Joe after his brains were scrambled by Foreman. 3rd fight could have gone either way, Ali himself said he was unable to answer the final bell, Joe's corner just threw in the towel before he was able to.
