Interesting one and a real 50-50 in my eyes. Can't see how Ali can stop Ike and he certainly shouldn't employ the rope a dope tactics, because Ike will just keep throwing. Although Ali has a lot less spring in his step compared to younger versions, he still has the speed and boxing skills, equipped with his mental strength to outbox Ike and if any man could deal with the pressure Ike would put on him, it is Ali.

Ali decision by 2 or 3 rounds in a 12 or 15 rounder whilst being rocked a few times.
