Thank you VanBoxingFan. There is a question about the improvement in Wlad's stamina. That easily could be accounted for with pacing, great trauner & training. And his strength when he ties folks up, tiring for the other guy. Anybody could be using anything, but Wlad's stamina is not so amazing that he has to be using EPO or something
ali is 2 inches shorter and had a 6 inches shorter reach.also about 30-35 lbs lighter than lewis lewis 6'5,84 inch reach,245 lbs ali 6'3,78 inch reach,210 lbs and i think ali would have beat him
Ali could not handle the size of Lennox Lewis. Alis clinching would not work for him. Lewis is too strong, plus Ali would have to watch out for the uppercut. Lewis is too smart to fall for Alis rope a dope, or Ali smiling to dismiss a blow that hurt him. As mentioned before Ali had trouble with good jabbers at various stages of his career in Jones, Norton, Lyle, and Young. Lennox has a better jab than these guys. Not one for left hooks or body shots, Ali would have to out point Lennox with his jab and cross-alone. I think the mid to late 1960s Ali could win on points, but its not a sure thing. Ali was quick with his feet and could fight moving backward or circling. It is here where he would have to shine I kind of like Lennox in this match up
