    Which is exactly why he's not a great fighter, or even close really

    Did he march to his own beat during those years that he was in a racist cult?

    You know he mistreated Khalilah Ali, with his antics with other women.

    Always felt Vitali carried Adamik.
    He was beating the hell out of him then let off the gas enough to let him survive.
    I remember saying to my wife it looks like hes carrieing him just so he can beat on him longer like the man pissed him off or something.

    People are going to bombard this thread with the Ali CARRIED this and that guy...the truth is he struggled with alot of guys. He has to live up to a higher order bc thats where you guys put him.....

    Ali maybe only carried Terrell and knew he had the guy fighting with one eye by rnd 5 ( alleged illegal thumb in the eye socket) .and a personal agenda during that time period. Guys like London? Really these guys wouldnt be boxing at HW today if boxing? Ali knew he was in with a MUCH less caliber opponent,i dont really consider this carrying the match is so lopsided.

    I do believe Tyson carried Tillis...no way he didnt after a quick knock down and then slowing down,he also said he wanted to see what ten rnds felt like which isn't exactly a bad thing he was knocking everyone one out before 4 rounds. We know he carried Biggs he admitted to it,but he finished the fight...with threads like these i consider fights that go the distance,as many fighters carry others to get rnds in if they know they can get away with it. Tough grueling matches are another story,its usually a sighn of NOT carrying someone? lol

    Vitali klitchko toyed with many guys as did Wlad klitchko( Povetkin,the obvious one ) i guess if any two boxers did this it was them....and fought like this knowing they would win lopsided wins without taking risks.

    Intentionally carrying and knowing you could win while not knocking someone out is a fine line.

    No, sorry, I probably should've phrased it better.
