        A punching bag with an undisputed belt around it along with the adoration of much of the world? Do explain his lack of skill when he ruled the division with little true power in his punches.

        If punching bags like him were hung up through out the world there would be a quick changing in the believe that bag work is good for a fighter.
        He didn't say Ali lacked skill. I don't think anyone is crazy enough to say that.

        But Ali did did popularize the 'punching bag' style as a strategy. Although, he didn't do it in every fight. The downside is just that Ali did take considerable punishment in his career, which led to the downfall of his health. It's easy to criticize fighters when people aren't the ones absorbing the blows, nor having to deal with the permanent and later health consequences later on in life.

              Tommy Hearns feels that fighters today fight the best and/or better competitors than they did during his era. He said that in an interview. Said that in his era, lots of fighters ducked other fighters.

                The ones doing the consistent hating have no daily lives, and no success, that's the thing.

                  The main difference is the guy who was ali's main rival whom he tormented didn't walk away from the fight twice.

                    Ali is/was

                    One of if not the greatest boxer ever
                    A true Champion
                    Someone people can look upto
                    A great human being
                    The man who spoke for his people
                    A respected figure in the world where many many of his quotes are still being used

                    Mayweather is
                    A fucking joke
                    A coward
                    An absolute disgusting human being who as Jas mentioned said "What has Africa done for me"
                    A waste of space who is hurting the sport and the sooner he fucks off the better.

                      Why do people act like Ali was a saint. And call boxers cowards lol you're a joke. Yea cause Ali didn't dodge the draft or chest on his wife or call Frazier Uncle Tom ect. Srr beat his wife was flashy had huge entourage... You guys act like Floyd is the first a hole boxer lol
