Ali vs Bryant Jennings who wins?

I'm shocked 21 posters actually picked jennings... what the hell are they smoking?

 

These clowns won't dare show their name or their reasoning under their OG screen names.. It's so fake. I hate these kinds of bait threads because they are using their alt knowing that their real account would get trashed. They're saying anyone whose 230-240lbs and over beats legends and all time greats. Reasoning. Today's food, vitamins and machinery duh, lmao.

It's almost sacrilege to move heavies through time and say that an average big heavy can beat them. That's weasel thinking. That's why I despise Zak and Rico. These clowns really don't ksab. Jennings can't rule during his era, but he would annihilate the past greats lol. Why? Size lmao...

 

Even George Foreman from early 90s would've throughly annihilated Jennings, It'd be very hard to watch. And that's coming from someone who rates Jennings and likes him a lot.

 

Blurry old films scare the pants of them. Still need mommy cuddle after their first horror movie.

 

This kind of thread and the 'thinking' behind tries to distill boxing down to a simplistic algorithm: Input, height, weight, age, etc of two fighters into a computer, crunch some numbers and... boom, you got the result perfectly predicted and supported by 'logic'. The mindset of the hipster boxing fan.

But the biggest single deciding factor cannot be calculated this way. Talent. And what this subjective criteria tells me is, if you got a time machine and took Jennings back to the 70s to fight Ali, without the benefit of all the modern developments in training, nutrition etc he would lose. And put Ali in a time machine and take him to 2017 with the benefits of all the modern developments in training, nutrition etc.... and Jennings would still lose.

Yes, the general direction of travel for all sports indicates performances improve as the decades pass so yes Jennings is better now than he would have been 50 years ago for all the reasons outlined but that does not mean he would be better than all those who boxed back then. That's an absurd conclusion.

In short. Ali wins.
