Default Ali overrated says Larry Holmes

I was watching "Thrilla in Manila" doco last night and Larry Holmes said that Ali was overrated as a fighter and that he punched like a butterfly while it was Frazier who hit like a bee. Your thoughts?

Punching mouthpieces into the 5th row of stadiums must be a symptom of a soft hitter.

I know I know, leave your complements for those who need them. I know I'm a regular Sherlock Holmes.
