If Floyd and Ali were the same size, Ali would KO Floyd. Foreman sounds like a fanboy by saying Floyd is better than Ali. Based on what? His wins over Corrales? Gatti? Hatton? Because those were his best wins of fighter's in their primes. And they weren't even A Level fighters. How many A Level fighter's did Floyd beat? How many fighters with legs did Floyd beat? He's done all he's done against flat-footed fighters. So, how great is he? To me, he's a bully picking on opponent's he knows he has an advantage over. Why didn't he hand pick Martinez at 154lb? Williams at 147lb? A PRIME Pacquiao at 147lb? Foreman's opinion means absolutely nothing here.

I agree with the bold but that's it. I always said Ali's biggest weakness was that he didn't go to the body. I feel the same about Felix Trinidad. However, Ali would box Floyd's ears off, man. Okay, maybe he doesn't stop him but he surely wins. Floyd is flat-footed and doesn't have the best legs to begin with. He's a lateral defender who relies on reflexes to see punches coming. He's been hit more than Pernell Whitaker and by lesser fighters. So, how is he the greatest defender, ever? You can hit Floyd with jabs and he gives you his body. You could not consistently hit Whitaker with any "one" punch.
