    Well, let's just say that Vitali would have troubled Ali and given him a much better go of it than the majority of the fighters that Ali beat. Maybe he wouldnt have beaten Ali but he has the size, toughness and certain other attributes like awkwardness as well as the chin to allow him to acquit himself with more to spare than many of the fighters that were just out and out outclassed by Ali.

    I pick Vitali Klitschko over a lot of great heavyweights like Frazier, Holyfield, Tyson, Liston ect.

    Tyson over Lewis.

    Mosley over Mayweather.

    This still takes the cake, imo...and I like Wajima.

    Then again

    Mayweather Jr SD 12 Whitaker
    Pedroza UD 15 Sanchez (1st fight)

    are definitely minority picks.

    Although unlikely, the fight might still come off. I'll be glued to my chair if it does though!

    I don't think Mosley over Mayweather is a particularly odd pick either prime for prime or right now.

    Maybe around here, but not long before Sal's death a couple of mags thought Pedroza would spoil him. The betting would have been no more than 7-5 in Sal's favour, if that IMO.

    Hearns over Mayweather at WW.

    Due to Hearns being a freak of nature.

    It'd be controversial if you picked Mayweather, not Hearns.

    I guess that's true. Too many PBF fanboys have been clouding my thoughts with their drivel.
