    Boxing could always use Ali.

    Entertaining, skilled, undeniable.

    Check out that **** at 10:20. Imagine seeing a HW letting his hands go like that for a KO today? Hell no.

    Ali. Because Ali captured people's imagination, had endless charisma and brought the sport to the spotlight - truly the most watchable and charismatic individual in the history of sport.

    Tyson, on the other hand, seemed to spend all his time outside the ring calling people "******" and snarling.

    both would kick ass

    Would be funny to see a 70's guy woop all these modern 'boxers'...

    And would be funny to see a 5'11" guy destroy all these fat and big boxers...
