    What chances would you give Kovalev against 1971 Ali? Who wins?

    About the same chance I'd give Canelo to move to 175 and beat Bob Foster.

    Kovalev is not little. He walks around at 190.

    He'd fall down at 190 against Ali. Happy now?

    Well Alee loved to clown his opponents, and that seems to trigger in switch in the maniac Russian's frontal lobe, so Alee better be careful


    Could Kovalev actually hurt Alee?

    Just in the last 3 days I've heard on this forum that Ray Leonard had overrated skills, Roy Jones wasn't that fast, and Deontay Wilder hit harder than prime Foreman and would beat Foreman.

    Oh, and at least 4 posters didn't know who Terry Norris was and thought a topic was about Chuck Norris.

    I'd say sh!t is an understatement.

    This. Ali wasn't just a better boxer. He was 3 inches taller and had a 5 1/2 inch reach advantage.

    He might do as well as Jerry Quarry who has similar measurements.
