    I'd even take the Tony Tucker version of Douglas to win, he has all the tools to beat Ali at this stage

    The best version of Douglas versus the worst version of Ali isn't a fair fight. Final Madison Square Garden Appearance Ali is a live dog.

    Ali shouldn't have been fighting by '78.

    I hate myself for admitting it but Buster. A competent fighter with his head on straight would have had his way with the Ali of the second Spinks fight.

    Half the match ups on this forum aren’t a fair fight. And ‘78 Ali wasn’t the worst version of him.
