    The Charles of the Louis fight vs the Ali of the Bonavena fight. Could Charles pull it off

    Yes, I believe he could! No, I don’t think he would! But he would not be outclassed IMO

    Possible although I'd still make Charles the underdog, Ali while rusty was still close to his physical peak he likely still has enough to beat Charles.

    This. Charles would give Ali a tough fight, but I see Ali still pulling of the win.
