    Mid 70's Ali literally beat Frazier. Twice.

    Why do you insist with these single digit IQ posts?

    Neither was Ali when Frazier beat him. See how that works smart guy?

    The first four slots are of course easy, but the fifth one is tricky.

    Moorer probably has the best case on paper, but Mercer is probably #5 head to head.

    The Ali that Foreman fought was literally more past it. You’re even more off than usual today. I wish you well.

    You shifted the goalposts again. We were talking about Frazier. The Ali who stopped Frazier was more past it than the Ali who beat Foreman. It's an endless change of topic with you because you never want to admit you're wrong or biased.

    Vitali would never beat Ali btw. Blew his shoulder trying to hit the slippery Byrd and ducked Haye.

    I gave you five fighters who could’ve successfully defended against (mid 70s) Ali, as you requested, but you don’t like that a reasonable answer exists.

    No, I simply disagreed. Frazier and Vitali aren't reasonable picks based on the arguments I laid out that you ignored.

    You think Ali from Manilla would have beat Tyson?!

    Frazier beat a younger Ali, so he’s obviously viable, as is Vitali.

    Frazier went 1-2 with Ali.

    Vitali went 0-2 with the 2 boxers most similar to Ali and ducked Haye.

    The same Haye that got shut out by Wlad.

    Has absolutely nothing to do with what I said. Wladmir and Vitali aren't interchangeable whatsoever.

    Prime Frazier went 1-0 and Vitali schooled the only Ali impersonator he fought (Larry Donald).
