    Ali was a thyroid drugg-addled mummy against Holmes, he would lose.
    Maybe the Ali vs. Berbick would have a shot, but it would be a stretch. Ali was far gone in Parkinson's then, amazing he could be competitive wagainst Berbick.

    Young Ali might lose, but he was so fast that I dunno if this would be the likely outcome.
    By the first Cooper fight, unless Ali clowns & is lax, there is little chance of that happening.
    And Ali would take him more seriously due to his size, relative speed, & strength.

    Ha! But Ali himself was the Original & Master harasser.
    Have you not seen the film of him with a bus & bullhorn at Sonny's place, the casino & of course weigh in confrontations?
    Of course Briggs would have so many versions that no man could hold his own.
    Except the law would intervene successfully-I imagine.

    If Briggs were really this psychotic & unfair & the sheer volume meant Briggs could triumph in harassment, the problem is all those restraining orders would prevent fights.

    In a division of Briggses, this kind of harassment is probably considered normal; just another part of the game that you sign up for. The police would shake their heads and conclude that Ali had only himself to blame.

    Thousands of them chanting together, lined up around Ali's house like the Uruk-hai at Helm's Deep...

    A boxing culture so toxic that they don't even need to draw the London Line, unlike the next universe over.

    This universe is the place where Daroll Wilson equals Joe Louis's title defences.

    "I'm not going back to Earth, Bob. You don't understand. It's wonderful here. They just all come at you in exactly the same way, every single time. It's like they don't even learn. I'm an undisputed champion here. Sure, the security bills are crippling, and all the women look like Shannon Briggs, but you should see my mansions. Yes, Bob. Plural. So help me, Bob, if you try to take me back--"

    Careers in the celibate clergy are very popular in this dimension.
