    Muhammad Ali most overrated Heavyweight of All Time

    Ali was a good Heavyweight boxer but not the best of all time not even top 5. I hated how people overrate his career. Ali is more of a human symbolism than a Top 5 Heavyweight boxer off all time. Especially now that he is dead people overrate him not knowing **** about boxing. RIP to Ali but I got to keep it real.

    My Top 5 Heavyweight of All Time that can easily beat Ali in their Prime. (in no order)

    - Jack Johnson
    - Rocky Marciano
    - Mike Tyson
    - Vitali Klitschko
    - Anthony Joshua

      His death has nothing to do with his high rating. He died a short time ago and he was already considered one of if not the greatest heavyweight in history long before his death. Ali in his prime was 210 pounds of lightning speed. He would not have lost to any of your top 5. He beat Liston when Liston was a real monster. He was not allowed to fight for almost 4 years in the middle of his prime or his record would be greater than it is. He isn't overrated. You just have him underrated.

        But what about Ali kicking the shít out of all the guys you mentioned? Byrd made Vitali quit, what do you think Ali would do? Marciano would get stopped under 6. Johnson, I mean --- easy work. Joshua, again --- easy work.

        Only real test there is Tyson and a young Ali/Clay is too much for Mike to handle in his prime. I love Tyson but Clay gets him.

          As in get him you surely don’t mean KO?
