    Sorry, couldn't resist it.
    The Fury who won the title to his great credit versus what many think was the best version of Ali at the Houston Astrodome against Cleveland Williams.

    People over exaggerate Williams bad condition for the fight.
    He was throwing some wicked punches with a technique I've yet to see matched by another puncher.

    Ali was just perfect that fight. The goat wins!

    Great performance from Ali beating a past prime guy who recently had been shot

    Fury destroys Ali

    60's Ali is lucky not to have a ko loss to 185 pounds Henry cooper

    Fury wouldn't get near him, it would be a very wide UD or a busted up Fury would be rescued by the referee late on.

    Ali by ko inside of five rounds. Amateur vs an ATG.

    Williams was shot in Nov 1964, he fought Ali in Nov 1966.

    If anyone is an amature in this contest it's Ali I'd love to see him try to pull his head straight back against Fury the punch would still land

    I would agree , but it wasn't a recent wound,that is my sole point.

    Well we would truly see how Ali would handle somebody that could actually beat him in the trash talking department. I think Fury would get in his head..

    Well gun shots can affect a person for life

    My point is that it was recent enough

    No one can understand a single word Fury says. Ali would laugh at him as most of the world does. Laugh at him and then brutally knock him out.
