Two slicksters. Two world class boxers. Two defensive wizards. Two world class champions. One is recognized as the greatest to ever do it...the other contends that title.
Who wins this high level chess match between two ring gods?
All this guy has done is stop a limited Wilder and win the most boring heavyweight title fight ever against Klitschko. Not even in Ali's league. Not even entitled to hold his spit bucket. Absolute Joke fight.
Sorry but Ali isn't beating a 6'9" 280lb man with the skills of Fury, just not happening.
I can see in 50 years he have heavyweight champions, 7 foot 5, 340lbs, athletic, quick, slick and people will still be saying Ali and Jack Dempsey would kick their asses, nostalgia is a powerful force
Ali was 6'3...smaller and lesser boxers have dropped Fury and gave him hard fights
With mythical match-ups you have to go with each guy at their best. Ali was almost out for around 90 secnds vs Henry Cooper, who is very limited. Knocked down at the end of round, barely able to come out for next round. Fury was knocked down by Pajkic at around age 22 and very raw, at that time Fury was not even a top 20 HW.
He was only 24 and still improving when he was dropped by Cunningham. Since then the only guy to drop him is Wilder, fully understandable.
Fury is bigger than Ali, and as good or better than Ali at everything also. I actually think prime vs prime, Fury wins handily.
