    Joe Frazier crushes em. He made his height an advantage by ducking even lower and forcing his taller opponents to reach down to him, which naturally brings hands away from the chin. His vicious left hook would come screaming over the tantative jabs and crosses AJ and Josh would be throwjng (and mostly missing) in their vain attempts to stop Frazier bulling into them.

    Lord knows what Foreman would have done. Doesnt bear thinking about really

    Nobody gets close to prime Ali. But that includes the guys from his own era too.

    The second and third tier guys would make for some interesting fights though

      I think the only boxer who can defeat Ali is Mike Tyson in his prime. That is, tyson before he was jailed for **** and lost his trainer and got addicted to drugs etc

          These guys are all ranked within the top 5 of todays heavyweights

          http://bit.ly/29FhuvR - (Deontay Wilder ranked number 3 in the world)

          But what would happen if these guys with their current skills and abilities fought guys in Muhammad Ali's era. E.g. fighting against George Foreman or Joe Frazier
          all three will have problems with ali's style and ring savvy....

          all three may have better chances against george and smokin' joe...but i will not say sure wins....
