    These are the guys I see Ali having massive trouble with.

    Both fights were on the same level? No. Ali did trash talk henry cooper by calling him a bum and this and that but what he did to liston was on a entirely different level.

    He still caught a few left hooks from an injured Floyd Patterson; imagine Tyson or Frazier landing theirs.

    From a style standpoint, A Page, or Tubbs could trouble him or have a 5% or less chance of beating him.

    I think that the chance of holmes vs. Prime ali is overrated like hell.ali was much much faster.norton and frazier chances are overrated too,they fought a totally diferent version of ali. Tyson,lewis,the klitschko brothers are his hardest test
