One phrase...Rope a Dope TrickAli may not be the greatest-Sugar Ray Leonard is also in there, as is Sugar Ray WhateverHisNameIs, and Foreman and Frazier weren't bad...But Lewis, though a good boxer, is nowhere close.Ali, at first relied on speed. When he got older, he got incredibly tough. That's why rope a dope worked.Also, it works on a scale. Lewis takes legal steroids, Ali didn't. Lewis would be artificially stronger.
and as i thought you know nothing about sports nutrition or steriods
Anyways, Rocky Marciana is the greatest.
Tha funny thing is, Roy Jones would beat the SHIT out of Ali!Theres no discountin who Ali is, or what Ali has done. And if anyone refers to him as the Greatest of All Time, i probably wouldnt argue with them. But like ive said a million times in other posts...athletes, simply get better as time goes on. Athletes now, are FAR more athletic and skilled then athletes 30 yrs ago. Athletes 30 yrs from now, will be far more athletic then those now. Itz a fact, and it doesnt take away from who those past athletes were, or what they did. Athlete might of been the Greatest for his time, but u cant compare him to boxers of our generation. Different breed. The only past Heavyweight from that Generation, that i see possibly holding a title in this era, is Foreman. And thats based solely on his power. Today they are strong, AND quik sumtimes. But at least he had the power to knock anyone out. Ali would get dropped by Tyson in his prime, i believe Holyfield in his prime would beat him, and Lewis now, would probably beat him. Not to mention Jones, i think Jones has as much power as Ali, but is honestly FAR quicker. I luv Ali, but this IS a new era.
oh and i've been reading and heard on some talk shows that people are starting to consider roy jones as the greatest fighter ever!!!
