That said, I still don't find him one of the most exciting fighters but he had many more great moments than today's boring monstrosities at heavyweight.
    Ali's most exiting fights happens to be some of the most exiting fights of all time and that was 'old' Ali. His fights with Foreman and Frazier III had excessive clinching and less than a handful of bodyshots. I know you don't think these fights are boring so might we conclude that your thesis does not hold?

      I dig Darch. He always goes for the knockout. I've been watching him for years and never felt cheated watching him fight.

          Saint G Groves must be 12 years old to come up with something as witty as "Vaseline" and "James Phoney".

            Wladimir Klitschko is my favorite heavyweight of all time.

                      Would you trust this man?

                      I swear his face reminds me of that "Joe Camel" (from like the 90s) from Camel cigarettes.
