    Ali not only invented the rope a dope strategy...but tons of others. He pioneered the holding behind the head to wear out his opponents....and did that frequently.

    He always kept a hand on someone, pushing them with the jab or keeping them off balance by nudging them, subsequently that threw off their gameplan. Not only that....but he adapeted on his feet much better than Floyd when he was young.
    ali couldnt adapt to bad opponents with a different style, like fraizer but more e****ially norton. floyd had that problem once and corrected it

      floyd was smart enough to predict a cotto stoppage of paulie within 4 or 5 rounds.

        And if he fights ODLH don't believe that **** won't come back to bite him in the ass.

        Or if he was so ****ing smart why didn't he fight Judah before Judah got owned by Baldmir.
        Uncle Roger is the better trainer, no ifs & buts about it. It was a good move.

        Also Zab was offered 4.3 mil to fight Floyd in November, guess what Zab turned it down & now he's fighting Floyd for less.

        Floyd is smart when he fights, this has nothing to do how smart he his outside of boxing.

          If Floyd is so ****ing smart, why didn't he develop a new thermo-resistant foam for the underside of the space shuttle? He could have sold it to NASA and made billions of dollars.

          You are a tool.

            You have to be a boxer to know why Floyd is the smartest boxer in the history of the game. Coming in a close second Sweet Pea Whitaker.

            His adjustments in the ring, his intelligence, and his savvy are truly remarkable.
