    I can see Usyk beat Prime Ali. Usyk is too quick, technical and too tricky for Ali. I believe Usyk is the best heavyweight in the history of the sport.

    I think he could beat Ali, it's a 50/50 fight

    But i wouldn't say he's the best in the sport

    No, just no. You say Usyk is too quick for Ali. At that point there wasn't much reason to read further

    Ali from 67, too quick,too awkward, too busy

    Usyk is the best p4p now, but Ali before his exile was awesome. He didn't do things the traditional way, never threw body punches, pulled back from punches etc. But the guy just had freak speed and agility. Also had underrated power, loads of heart and great chin and recovery

    Ali might be a little overrated by the consensus because of his legend away from the ring. However, he is maybe getting a little underrated in more recent times

    I can't pick a heavyweight his size to beat him, even the brilliant Usyk

    Lewis in recent memory has the best chance. He had the jab, timing, calm demeanour and unlike usyk the extra size

    I wouldn't bet my life on it, but I favour Ali

    Im a huge Usyk fan but Ali is a much better boxer than the bodybuilder and has a better chin.

    That is pretty ironic tbh. A good portion of the forum picked Usyk to win and Joshua isn't on the level of a Holyfield or a Lewis. Hell Riddick Bowe would probably KO him, maybe even Golota. Chinny, no gas, no heart. Just not there. Ali would school Joshua

    Until further notice (Or wins), AJ and Wilder aren't any better than Michael Grant IMO....

    Grant ? Oh nah not imo. Wilder may not have a better list of wins than Grant but Joshua does and would demolish Grant inside 7. In all honesty though Grant would easily be Joshua's 3rd best win, maybe even his second best win. definitely a better win than Whyte, Pulev and Parker, meanwhile Lewis has wins over Ruddock, Mercer, Holyfield, Vitali, Rahman, Bruno, Tua, past it Morrison in no particular order and then you get to Grant and Golota.

    Levels. Joshua just isn't that guy. Lewis is far superior and would have Joshua crying in the corner worse than Usyk did

    Beating Chazz Whiterspoon, Derek Chisora (barely, could have been a draw) and AJ (who is, for me, pretty good, for 90% of the board, a glass chinned bum) means he beats Ali. Interesting. Lmao at too quick for Ali. ****, I just realized I got trolled.

    I wouldn't count out the Grant who beat Golota to beat AJ to be honest.
