I see Ali still winning albeit by different means. He would dance a lot more in the earlier rounds. Ali simply had Foreman's number when they...
Very good question Fergy. Bob Arum puts on the Foreman-Ali fight in Madison Square Garden. Ali still wins so history does n't change too...
I think Thomas had fallen off the wagon when it came to illegal substances prior to this fight,Fergy. Berbick - an erratic fighter himself - took...
Hard finding a case for anyone else. Even Dempsey and Langford would have to go all out for victory. Maybe a Cruiserweight Evander Holyfield...

Thanks Richard.

One of Rocky's amateur losses was to a guy named Coley Wallace who became an actor and played Joe Louis in Joe's biopic.

Inspired by MoneyMay 1's Cassius Clay 1964 v George Foreman 1974 post. Who takes this? My money's on Ali. He still had a lot of his old...
