Wladimir Klitschko DESTROYS Ali

Ali has footspeed, an iron will and is his own ring general. I don't think Wlad has the reflexes to react to Ali's punches at all, he would not be able to see them, for all intents and purposes, by virtue of being such a large man. (though incredibly athletic for his size)

Ali can step in with jabs and occasionally follow up with right crosses. Ali can only do this if Wlad's most impressive weapon, his own jab, does not pose the threat it normal does and I think it doesn't. Ali could stay out of range, pop in with footspeed, coming in punching straight, and tie his man up. For once his opponent would not be looking to break free, as Wlad is happy to clinch.

I put forth the argument that Ali's jab troubles Wlad more than vice-verse purely going on respective handspeed and reflexes. I say that compared to the advantage Ali holds in these two attributes Wlad's reach advantage is not such a big deal even though historically taller boxers outbox smaller boxers.

Ali by close UD over 12, and wider UD over 15.

 

Like he destroyed Purrity and Sanders and never rematched them.

 

No.

Attention seeking dumbass.

 

This theory is interesting,to say the least. I'm not saying that Ali would find Wladimir or his brother easy opponents,but he beats them both without any real hardship.

 

Ali was faster than Sanders and Sanders speed was the only time either Klit has been landed on. However I think both Klits left jabs causes Ali problems too. 60s Ali wins UDs over both, early 70s Ali fights very close fights with both going either way, post 74 Ali loses to both imo

 

Prime Wlad can be beaten by strength and aggression, Ali never had those.

George Foreman can beat Wlad though as he is a far more balanced all round fighter.

Watch Wlad vs Byrd (similar fighter to Ali), Sanders, Peters to see the ease with which Wlad deals with speed and struggled with brute force.

Wlad UD 12, 15 over Ali by about a 2:1 round ratio.

Foreman KO Wlad within 3 or 4 rounds.

 

Ali would toy with Wlad for as long as he wanted and then take him out. The hand and foot speed of Ali would be a nightmare for the plodding Klit.

 

:good

 

I don't think Wlad has the skills to trouble Ali. He's taller and he weighs more, but their reach is fairly close. Ali's chin, speed, and footwork are superior, and he has the best competition of any heavyweight. Wlad has better power than Ali, but I don't think he's stronger than Ali. Ali also faced punchers who hit harder than Wlad, so I don't see what would trouble Ali about him.

Ali wins a clear decision.

 

This would be an easy win for Muhammad Ali...in my opinion.

 

Ali never had strength ???? Numerous fighters,Ken Norton among them,testified that Muhammad was the strongest fighter they'd ever faced.

 

Well...NO..Wlad WOULD NOT have destroyed Ali...there..we've discussed it.

 

Ali hasn't got a damn chance.

 

How could you even justify this in boxing? Look at Wlad losses. Compare the comp besides the Klits. I don't understand this conclusion. Who on Wlad's comp beats Ali. Nobody stands even a chance against even a non-prime post exile Ali of 71-74. Where do I go wrong?
