    the ali vs frazier is another triangular concept that gets tested; ali had problems with joe, foreman ate up joe, ali humbled george.

    go figure.
    Good points. I just think the Klitschko's, Holmes and Lennox were better suited to beat Ali then the fighters in his era, but as you said, nobody is wrong in mythical matchups because we know that that wasn't even close to a prime Ali that Holmes toyed with even if he was still fairly young.

      yeah. trapped into a certain mindset. thing is, once a rocky fan rolls out the names that are supposed to impress someone, that should instantly wake the up from their dream.

        yeps.

        if a thread is titled ''whos more popular/loved A or B'', ok. but to bring resumes into it.....shameful voting going on here.

          Marciano fought and defeated 9 'world level' opponents.
          La Starza x2
          Layne
          Louis
          Savold
          Matthews
          Walcott x2
          Charles x2
          ****ell
          Moore

          By my estimation Mayweather's count is between 24-29 depending on your judgement.

            perfect how names of voters are hidden. 113 ''fight'' fans would get called out.

              I think H2H is not important + you cant check it,but Alis achivments in boxing are great.

                      The poll is a bunch of young newbie fans talking sht as usual , its amazing how the casual fan sees things or should I say dont see things .
