    Steve 1990, with all due respect, why don't you ask about the old favorite David Tua? In all seriousness, Muhammad Ali had Parkinson's, no way would any boxing commission issue him a license. especially after the Trevor Berbick fight in Dec 1981. You have had other posts before which were very goof.

    Yeah Steve, all respect for some of your other (at times excellent) posts, this is kind of odd for a topic. Ali's PD was a factor...I guess even a WAAAY past it Bowe could beat him, but why?

    Bowe stops him in a awful, mauling type fight. I see a corner stoppage around 10.

    2 fat out of shape boxers with slurred speeches. I'm picking Ali to take a decision in an ugly fight with both men being exhausted by the mid rounds.

    I kind of feel some someone's dislike for the great Muhammad Ali with posted questions like this one. For example might be, prime Muhammad Ali, 1964-1967 vs prime Riddick Bowe, 1992.

    Why? Bowe wasn't exactly in the prime of his career in 2005. I'd actually pick Ali to win this!
