Who beats Prime Muhammad Ali?

Id favot Ali over anyone. An unshakeable will and a diamond chin and
The most durable HW. Louis, Tyson, Bowe had the tools but
Ali couldnt be outsmarted or stopped, very difficult. I said Louis
because of his jab and fundamentals, Tyson because of his left hook
and speed and power, and Bowe because of his physical power, and
outside and inside game.

 

poll is off with Joe Louis

 

Lewis/Vitali
Tall combined with strength. If Lewis or Vitali were in their prime they would be too much at height advantage combined with their natural strength. Ali is a better boxer, but they would surely be too big and they would frustrate him from the outside, because they are very effective the way they fight. They wouldn't punch them self out like Foreman did, but be patient and win a ugly fight by decision. They are too focused.

Tyson
The prime Tyson could pull it off, butits a toss up between them...

 

Nobody

 

I see you jumped the **** offline. Good move, cause I was about to roast yo ass.:smoke

 

Ali may not have been the biggest banger, but when you add in his speed there is a certain shock factor that you have to take into consideration. I could honestly see lewis getting hit by a punch he didn't see and soon after hitting the canvas or get ripped apart by combos. There is simply no way that lewis has faced a hw with ali's speed but it is very likely that ali has faced the sort of power lewis brings to the table.

Ali would use his far superior footwork, faster hands (his quick double or triple jab would play a huge role), better reflexes and better stamina to carry him to a tko or a ud. Lewis's jab would be a smaller factor than some may make it to believe. Ali in his prime could use his boxing knowledge coupled with great athleticism to mitigate its damage. Another thing to take into consideration is if it was 15 rounds, if so lewis, baring a lucky shot, would stand no chance in hell.

 

Voted nobody but if i had to chose who has the most chance to win its Lewis for sure.

 

Not sure if I'd pick any, but the guys I would list as having the best chances would be the usual "top H2H suspects": Louis, Lewis, Holmes, Tyson, Wladimir, Foreman, Vitali probably in that order.

 

Haha beat the greatest heavyweight champion of all time that moved like a middleweight on balett feet, the fastest hands of any heavyweight champion and impeccible defense.

Good luck with that.

 

All of those guys have a good chance of beating Ali except for Bowe, not sure about Dempsey either because I haven't seen him fight much.
Ali was a great fighter to be sure, but Christ almighty is he overrated.

 

Pure Unadulterated bullcrap Ali took all Liston had , allEarnie Shavers had All George Foreman hadand beat all 3

ali would just play with the klitschko's vitali stumbling around like rock em sockem lol

rocky would die trying lennox is the best since ali bhut would not have beaten him

 

Do you appear on comedy club???? youre the best comedian ive seen in a while. Ali could beat both Klit sisters at same time while eating popcorn

 

lewis gets vastly overated here

 

He's legitly top 3-top 5.

 

Hype? How many ATG fighters does Ali have on his resume? You believe people think he is the best becaue he "shouted" it? People think he was the best because he beat the best fighters of his era, several ATG fighters. Ali proved he was the best, he talked and backed it up. Hell one of Ali's prime victims came back 20 years later in his 40's re captured the HW championship. How the hell that would put Ali at 3rd in the 90's era is beyond me. It sure as hell isn't logic. He beat a much better version of Foreman than the one who had great success in the 90's.

The Klitschkos don't have any all time greats on their list. But the do have losses to fighters Ali would have destroyed on their list. Lewis is the only all time great either of the Klits fought, and that was a loss. There just isn't enough great competition to measure how they would handle Ali, or any other ATG for that matter... But their short comings we have seen against lesser competition that that of Ali at least proves they are not indestructable, and most definately beatable by Ali. That is logic.

The fact is, every fighter you mentioned have all lost to fighters that are no where near as good as Ali. The possiblility of Ali beating them can not be denied. Logically.
