    Its pretty widely accepted SRR is GOAT p4p

    Ali GOAT trash talker and easily the most influential boxer the sports ever seen

    Is there a commonly accepted GOAT of ring IQ?


    This generations i would say floyd and BHOP are the 2 frontrunners by a long shot (id like to say rigo but i want to see him fight more if HBO stop being ****s)

    Other than following Dylan in the anti Vietnam movement, and Martin Luther King in the Human Rights League prey tell us how Ali was influential?

    The man was incapable of original thought.

    Even his trash talking was copied from some wrestler called Gorgeous George, by his own admission.

    I think you have to consider Floyd, Wladdy, Sergio, Hop and Rigo in any discussion of ring IQ along with the best in history.


    All-time I would have to say Hop, when you consider what he accomplished despite not being overloaded with natural gifts (hand speed, foot speed, strength, punching power).


    Shout out to Slappy Joe also.
