    Ali would have won this fight by KO. Haye would be competitive for a while, and earn Ali's respect. Over the long haul, though, Ali's lightning quick combinations and dazzling right hand would have caught Haye's chin.

    :D

    It's not even about physical attributes...Haye doesn't have giant balls like Ali or Foreman.
    At the elite level, fights are won more on intangibles than tangibles, imo.

    Forgetting the massive gulf in skills, fighting in the swetering African heat required something else, courage and mental endurance, two elements obviously lacking in Haye but abudantly obvious in Ali, silly post!

    Foreman was way bigger. Foreman has a longer reach than the Klitschkos while Haye has a disadvantage against the Klits.

    And Haye is 6'2 in working boots.
