Prime Tyson & Frazier had the best chance to beat a Prime Ali

[M26]

The Muhammad Ali that fought Cleveland Williams would defeat both Joe Frazier and Mike Tyson.

And Joe Frazier would beat Mike Tyson. Heart, desire and stamina would be the key.

Many have also forgotten the fact that we have never seen Ali in his prime since it was spent in jail.

He really could have been The Greatest.

[Frazier's 15th round]

Ali never went to jail. He was out walking around. He was even allowed to spar and do exhibitions, so he could have kept himself in pretty decent shape.

why holmes not frazier?

[kapersky]

both joe and tyson could probably beat the second ali. the second ali was to slow and "weak"
he never dance or punch hard like when he landed one hard righthand on liston or lefthook on clevelands chin.
if someone1 think joe could beat tyson before he left rooney is pathetic. but that dont make tyson greater than joe, like saying marciano could beat foreman, marciano is greater than foreman, but foreman probably beat him...

[Da Iceman]

if joe could beat the second ali how come he lost to him twice? do some research before you post

why holmes not frazier?

cause holmes has the same style as ali, so that is the best way to attempt to fight ali, you know, beat him at his own game!
