If Muhammad Ali was in his prime today, would he be a dominant force in his division?

        Ali was in great shape in his prime.

            Perhaps if Ali had access to steroids like todays champions he would be much bigger. But he would be slow and robotic like them if he did.

                And what experts? Anybody with access to the internet is an expert these days. It's not rocket science.
                Thank you. Haye is very underrated

                    I have no idea who that is.

                    This thread isnt about the Klitschkos. Its about Muhammad Ali.

                    Im not even a fan of the brothers. Last time I saw one of them fight was back in 2011 when Wlad fought Haye and the only reason I watched that fight was because I was supporting David Haye.

                        If a pot bellied professional golfer, among other journeymen, can humiliate the champion of this divison then Ali eats them all for breakfast. Even Ali circa 1975 toys with these fat pretenders.

                        "In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king". Wladimir klitschko is the one-eyed man in todays heavyweight divison.

                                He wouldn't be taking the type of steroids bodybuilders use.

                                    Do you guys think Ali could have taken Rigondeaux at a 140 lbs catchweight? Hell, if Ali had a sex change would he be able to beat Laila?

                                        Why's everyone making out Ali was some puney HW.

                                        In his prime he weighed around 220 and was 6'3" not to mention fast, extremely skilled with an IRON chin.

                                        He'd smoke everyone in the HW division and UD the Kilts.
