    The most I can really think about is Larry Holmes, that's the closest we will ever get, hahaha.

    I'm not sure. If it wasn't Page, it was someone who had somewhat of a resemblence to Ali. Not that he fought like him exactly, but he sort of tried to imitate Ali's confidence and stature in the ring.

    Pretty much most high movement boxers have a lot in common with Ali stylistically

    Larry Donald tried it. Not as successfully mind you but he was a decent imitator, especially chin wise.

    The man who Ali himself idolized and imitated: Sugar Ray Robinson.
