    Amir Khan vs everyone he lost too. "I was outboxing 'em, but made a tiny little mistake." He's still undefeated in quite a few weight classes too.

    Come on! More people think Wlad beats AJ than Vit beats Lennox? How much are slightly better reflexes going to help Wlad against AJ? Can't see any other big advantage a younger Wlad would have, while an older AJ would have several. Meanwhile, an inexperienced Vit lost by CUTS! Come on, Vits got the better chance here!

    Obviously Ali over Frazier.

    H2H Frazier beat his ass in FOTC. But we all know Ali rates higher.

    Yeah, but Ali got to prove it via rematches. This kinda is limited to those without rematch opportunities.

    Only after Foreman ruined him. Also had Joe Frazier stood up for the 15th round Ali's corner admitted they were going to throw in the towel.

    There's a decent argument that a non blind, prime Frazier beats prime Ali. But he lost 2 to 1, Ali is justly regarded as better h2h just like Ward will be over Kovalev.

    Ali is not regarded as better H2H. Frazier won the most significant fight of the 3 fights. Making it not as cut and dry as a simple 2-1.

    Don't see how Ward Kovalev compares to Ali Frazier. The first Kovalev Ward fight was a bad decision, but a close fight. The first Frazier Ali fight saw Joe Frazier open a big can of whoop-ass on Ali.

    Linares Demarco springs to mind. Remember being in awe of those skills from the first half of the fight
