The truth is that regardless of the reasons Lewis faced the number 1 boxer in his category 10 years after starting his professional career as an...
Ali was a boxing champion and a self-promoter with an impressive resume. Louis dominated his division longer and more than anyone before or since....
"I'm looking for fighters who's prime looked like a ATG but it was short lived"
in what fight did he look like ATG??
