    Not only would he beat them, he would dominate them, every last one of them

    Wlad would toy with the smaller, soft puncher Ali just like he did the speedster, slick boxing Chris Byrd. Athletes evolve and get bigger, stronger and just better with better training and nutrition. Each generation men get generally taller and stronger. A ripped 248lb. power punching Wlad Klitschko just steamrolls 205lb. Ali. Ali would be a cruiserweight nowadays and could well dominate that division.

    You're right. All these fat, slow, un-athletic guys of today would just destroy him.

    If this is the case, please explain how Wlad has been knocked out more times than Ali??????

    surely if boxing has evolved, Wlad would have a better chin than say the old fighters like Ali etc?????

    Modern nutrition should make you stronger, make your chin better etc no?

    I can see some of the boxers on your list being the case. I believe Vitali, and Valuev trouble him immensely. Wlad very well may get knocked out. Same with Tyson Fury. Although the jury is out on him, getting rocked by a Cruiserweight doesn't bode well. Wilder, not sold yet. Can't judge it right now.

    Not sure David Haye is the one to get him either.

    Well, he never fought anyone with the explosiveness of Sanders, the slickness of Byrd, the granite chin of Purrity and he'd be KTFO against Lewis 2000/50 times.:nono:nono

    Huge Ali fan here, but don't mention him and Lewis in the same sentence. There's NOTHING robotic or predictable about him....yeah he got KOd, but vs big punchers when he underestimated them and he KTTFO in rematches.....

    Yeah, a 33 yo Vitali bullied a 37 yo Lewis....but Lewis held his own and WON the fukking fight......TKO6.

    Don't bring your hate into a thread....if you wanna call out the troll for his OP so be it......don't hate the GOAT for being the GOAT.:deal:deal:deal

    Only in Klittard land can being KTFO somehow be seen as a better achievement than going the 15 round distance

    Whatever helps you sleep at night :good

    Your'e a hater Azzer. Have been since I first saw you post. :think
    Ali would be CW Champion today. He'd sneak up to make fights with 40 yo Vitali, steal titles from Haye and Potvetkin, then go back down and reestablish his dominance at 200.
    I give Ali credit where it's due. But he aint ever beating Lewis.....he aint ever beating Wladimir and he aint ever beating Tyson.
    I think he'd KO Louis.....win a closish decision over Marciano, win another closish decision over second era Vitali, and probably go 50/50 with first era Vitali.

    I dont bother to rate crude tiny bangers like frazier and Langford or dempsey or johnson. They were surely entertaining in their day.......and what is boxing but entertainment......but H2H......TODAY BEATS YESTERDAY IN 90% of ALL sporting matches.

    Ali was 215 as a full fledged heavy. Now Wlad's epic fights with Ibragimov and Williams show just how Wlad would push Ali around.:patsch:lol:
