both ali and cooper were much smaller men i jus cant see cooper competing with a modern athlete. Obviously Sir Henry is more of a legend, but being a legend doesn't win you fights, skills, size, and power do. The question you gotta ask yourself is, what is the harder shot, 'Enry's ammer or Audley's big left hand?
Cooper > Bodell > Bugner > Wilson > Thunder > Whitherspoon > Wilson > Briggs > Liakhovich > Guinn > Audley...
Henry to unquestionable lose a competitive fight to Audley on points and then spend the next 40 years complaining he was robbed.
