    Eeehhhmmmmm.........look again. Most of the posters here are bemoaning the fact such a thing was posted. This isn't on Classic's shoulders.

    Wow this thread is so stupid. Ali was throwing a jab and was looking right at Shavers. Holmes was loading up with a right uppercut and Shavers threw a peach.

    Ali has a better chin definitely but that video proves nothing.

    I found that interesting too. Have a look at 1.58, Tillis is murdered by a right hand. One of his career highlights getting up from that. Thankfully for Quick he was moving back a little.

    Hard to judge really. I think Ali probably had the edge,though Holmes' chin was pretty iron laden too.
