Do you agree with dmatos assessment of Louis vs Ali?

You describe Louis’s opponents as “slow and unskilled”, and then mention Conn and Walcott.

There is no heavyweight in the top ten today, who ever dreamed of being as fast or skilled, as Conn or Walcott.

 

Louis's jab was not as strong as nortons or stiff.

 

You bring fantasy land to a new level!atsch

 

Louis's jab might just have been harder than Norton's rigth cross!

 

OK then.

Name a heavyweight in the current top 10, who you think is technically better than Conn or Walcott.

Then tell us why!

 

They clearly were not among the "vast majority" to whom I was referring... Are you being sincere?

 

Fine, Tyson. You should run a poll on this. Neither of us is going to convince the other.

The men that he stopped within two rounds: Berbick, Spinks, Carl Williams, Tony Tubbs, Henry Tillman, Alex Stewart, Bruce Seldon (and a bunch of others probably not worth mentioning) are more impressive than those Louis dispatched within 2.

 

So is that your list?

 

Throw in Marvis, Savarese, and the Black Rhino too then. (why not?)

 

Max Schmeling (top 20 all time heavyweight)
John Henry Lewis (great light heavyweight champion, and curently ranked heavyweight)
Buddy Baer (still holds a record for most first round knockouts, ranked at the time)
Tami Maurellio (current #1 contender)
King Levinsky (ranked contender over several years)
Charlie Retzlaff (ranked contender)
Gus Dorazio (ranked contender)
Lee Ramage (best technician of the era)

Now how many people on your list were ranked at the time?

 

What a joke of a person you are. How can you rank a home made champion above the greatest boxer of all time. You really need to watch the interview of Ali and howard cosell and LISTEN to what Ali says! Ignoramus.

 

Those rankings mean little to me. Bottom line to me is that Tyson's early-ko victims were better boxers and more formidable opponents. I'd take them head to head over Joe's by a large margin.

 

This.

 

Yes, I am a joke of a human being.

Now that we have that out of the way, who exactly do you think is the greatest boxer of all time?

 

Be careful here, he doesnt just watch fighters he studies them!
