    Is Ali allowed steroids like AJ, Wlad, Ortiz, etc, etc, etc? If so...then yes, too much speed, skill, chin, and heart.

      I was at that fight, Povetkin looked a far cry from the post Klitschko Povetkin. I can't debate or discuss boxing with you unless you've got an educated opinion of what you're talking about.

          A 220lb post 2013 Povetkin vs Ali I can't in the least see being competitive, a Povetkin without PED's ? Possibly.

            Definitely not, he would never get through Fury.

            And the fact you left Fury out being the top fighter not only of this era, but easily any, tells us all we need to know about what you know about the HW division, and likely boxing in general.

              He's not fighting right now. And to say he wouldn't get past fury is laughable. Let me guess you think Wilder stops foreman too huh?

                People are way too emotional and it blinds them. Sports fans, similarly to music fans are way too enamored with personality and image rather than the actual talent of their heroes. Ali is a media creation, hyped up to proportions way beyond what was true. He was a great fighter but lets be real. He would have faced hell with plenty of of fighters since his era. In fact he faced hell with Ken Norton and very small fighters like Frazier. Joe was ferocious and he had great stamina and heart but.....Ah, there's no use trying to convince people who want to believe in gods. Yeah, Ali could handcuff lightning. He could hit you so fast that it would land before god would get the news.

                  Name some heavyweights in this era that would beat him and explain why.
