    I said you could argue. P4P if Ali was a natural 147 or 154 pounder he would basically be Sugar Ray Leonard. Also, Floyd may have ducked elite competition but no one can question his skillset.

    Ali was better then Wlad in almost every area and Wlad didn't have that much of a size advantage over Ali. I think Ali would be to fast and would be one step a head of Wlad beating him handily. Wlad would have some moments but the more the fight went on the more Ali would gain control. I like Ali whether hes moving around and dancing early in his career or the more flat footed Ali later in his career. Ali unlike a lot of Wlad's opponents wouldn't be intimidated by Wlad's power and would take it to him. Ali even not in his prime would likely stop Wlad in the later rounds.

    If he bounces a right hand off his jaw early he wont have too. I agree Joe in his stride and against someone more his size there's no stopping him, but I cant forget Joe having a hard time with Bugner either, close fight they had and hes around 6 ft 4/5" with a lovely jab, he turned up to fight against Joe. Maybe not prime Joe though I suppose. Long story short, im a firm believer in a good biggun beats a good little'un when they are elite level skills

    Joe couldn't put away the oaf Bugner when prime. The #5 all time on bxrec is maybe better than Bugner.

    I think a prime Ali would outbox wlad due to having bigger hands?

    I disagree. Tyson may had been the more talented fighter but Frazier had something that Tyson did not and that was Will. You could not break Frazier's will, Fraziers will > Tyson's boxing ability.

    Lol so 41yo Mercer was shot just like any other heavyweight ,but wlad was in his prime when he lost to Fury and Joshua, because wlad wasn’t aging, right? .
    Wlad would have a decent chance against ali ,not because he was more skilled, but because of power and size.
    If Ali beats Wlad then Joshua would get killed .
    Anyway your weak as$ should get back to curry munching, fighting is not for you.

    Who's Bugnor?

    Who's Frazor?

    Are you sure that you're at the right site?

    noone claimed that, so ...flop.

    Did you not cringe when you tried to back up supporting facing a 41 year old in a title defence? Mercer was shot2shyte, still remains.

    get back to me when you have an argument that stand up.

    His 10 year run was the result of 10 years of fighting bums.

    Emanuel steward Wlad would make Ali his *****. Just because your from the 60's doesn't mean your going to beat a 2000 era fighter. It a joke that people would even think so. People need to stop comparing the Wlad that got ko'd to fighters.
