    Ali was the Wladimir clinch machine of the 70s.
    His rope a dope tactic was utter trash. Taking unnecessary punches.
    He was ALWAYS a sucker for a left hook.
    He arguably lost every fight to Norton. This is like Floyd going through hell vs Carlos Baldomir.
    His signature move was to hold the opponents neck down.
    He said the reason Frazier won a decision was because of white judges (sore loser)
    He called Frazier a gorilla, uncle tom and the white mans puppet, even though Frazier helped him financially during his three year ban.


    My point is if Ali was fighting now in 2015 with the same exact skill sets, he would not be anything special. He would get trashed for his big mouth and clinching. Thing is, people just have a love affair with ANYTHING that happened long ago. because the footage is black and white , they MUST be better fighters than we have today. This is BS.

    In the third Frazier fight, Joe was blind in one eye and still gave the "greatest" hell.

    And like I said Floyd is the ONLY boxer EVER to be years past his prime and still be on the throne as P4P king.

          Sixties Ali -- and early 70s Ali -- would slaughter today's heavyweight division.

            joe Frazier is an all time great fighter, and Ali beat him. Ali in the 70s was past his prime, and still beat everyone. Ali 60s was the greatrst heavyweight of all time. Why do you down play Norton? Do you even know who he is? Hes top 25 greatest heavyweights of all time. Watch his fight against Larry Holmes, he gave him hell. norton just has a style that is really good against boxers like Ali and holmes. Ali was past his prime when he fought Norton, and i doubt you have seen the fights cuz Ali clearly won the second fight.

              Log off, you dopey Kraut.
              Floyd Mayweather vs Antonio Margarito in 2006, 2007 or 2008 would've generated at least 50 million dollars, take Arum out of the equation and let the fighters promote themselves, they would walk away with the whole purse, Floyd would've probably made 30 and Margarito would've made 20. Cotto vs Margarito made 500000 buys, a fight against Mayweather especially after Mayweather beat Dela Hoya would've generated way more than that.

                resumes aside, it's humorous when casuals go off on how floyd isn't an ATG because he's boring and then they start swinging on ali's nuts like he wasn't the master of running and hugging. ali has the luxury of people not remembering 90% of his career where he bored the **** out of everyone.

                    Why are you a Rigondeaux fan?

                    You don't know boxing yet you are a fan of a true master.

                      Floyds a great no doubt...ATG. as far as being the greatest i wouldnt dispute it, i believe hes made his case to discussed among the Top. But by NO MEANS will i call him by that lameass TBE, it just sounds so juvenile saying that

                      Fact of the matter is ppl compare to past greats all the time..even when theyre trashing him, unconsciously hold him to higher standards aswell
