1967 Muhammad Ali vs. 2007 Wladimir Klitschko

:huh because TERRELL isnt even close to VLAD skill wise ! just like nobody VLAD has fought ALIs size is close to ALI in skill ! thats why I still pick ALI to win a desision and VLAD to be much TOUGHER then TERRELL ! Since ALI is a hell of alot better then the BROCKs of this world !:hi:

 

Cooper knockdown was in 1963 before Ali fought Liston for the championship. Ali in 67 was at the top of his game. Watch the Terrell or Williams fight to see the fastest Heavyweight ever in speed of hand and foot that would defeat Wlad and anyone else. Anyway he gave Cooper a chance at the title in 1966 and he outclassed him. Cooper got lucky cuz young Clay got careless waiting for the 5th to make his prediction come true. Cooper had an underrated left hook. Easily his best punch.

 

stupid comparison and argument.
That's the problem with 90% of boxing fans , they put most of these "ATG" in a "god" status mode and can't think rationally and come up with inadequate comparisons.

It's the same **** with a lot of subjects. Not necessarilly boxing.
Take religion for instance. You got the believers & non believers. Difference between the two is that one thinks his faith has more crediblity and importance than verified facts , theories and scientific evidences..

This poll should have at least a minimum of 70 to 80% "Draw/Can't Decide".
But instead , there's almost 66% who voted for Ali and aprox 30% for Klitschko.

Both sides are wrong , because we don't know for sure.
Ali never had to fight a guy like Klitschko and same goes for Wlad...

 

:smoke like I said i think ALi of that era is the best ever but by no way is TERRELL or the shot WILLIAMS a way to gage how he would do against a talent like VLAD who is worlds better then those 2 ! Thats like comparing ALI to BIRD !:good

 

:good

 

Why do the Wlad supporters continue to bring up the Cooper knockdown to discredit Ali's accomplishments yet Wlad has been stopped 3 times!!!!! What's less impressive?

 

Ali proved he was the greatest. Wlad hasn't proved nothing. It's a wonder you're allowed to post so much ****.

 

ali easy...not even a contest

 

ali easy...not even a contest

 

im guessing if we are talking about knockdowns then danny williams much be a much better boxer than tyson and we should hold this against him, come on guys ali leans back gets knocked down, if his chin was questionabl he would not hav got back up, just face it wlad gets tkod near the tenth.

 

what you are saying is that mathis, foster, bugner, norton, lubbers... all the go the distance with him but wlad possibly can't? i'm not saying wlad is winning, i voted for undecided, but it would be a really a tougher fight than you nostalgics might expect, maybe with a surprise ending...

 

Why are people making all these Klitschko polls? Ali would DESTROY Klitschko.

 

Never said it did. :shock:

 

Sure , stopped 3 times but that's irrelevant...
I'm not even a wlad supporter (i'm the first to say that Povetkin is the man to beat him)... but you people are delusional..the fight with Cooper is just a quick example...there's a bunch of others. It's not even funny.

& here's a repost.
