    Ali's resume is far better than Jones'.

    Stonehands, because your backing up Ali doesn't mean your a nuthugger by any means. Your only viewing your opinion with your head, not your heart.

    And for anyone to pick apart Ali's career is nothing short of ridiculous. If any poster can pick apart Ali's career and take the shine off it, it scares me to what they would do to Tyson's resume. Infact, not just Tyson's but any other fighter in history.

    I'll give you a tip. Look through the microscope, but don't zoom in too much. Your critisism sucks beyond belief.

    As I mentioned before, you have many facts at your fingertips but have a hopelessly incomplete grasp of the bigger picture, the flavour of the times and the factor that make fighters and fights great.

    This is evident to most on here who read your posts.

    It is staggering how much crap that idiot talks, it really is. I seldom click on a thread when I see his name.

    Anyone who claims Ali destroyed Liston, or his career (as you tried to find an excuse for your original ridiculous claim), and not the mafia, may claim himself not a nut-hugger as much as they want, that won't change that they are exactly that based on their posts. Same with Williams being a quality fighter. Williams wasn't even ranked at the time of the fight, and rightfully so. He might have been a threat to tomato cans, but he was no longer a world-class fighter anymore. As for name fighter, I pointed out an example of the silliness of that logic. Stan Harrington twice beat Sugar Ray Robinson. Do these wins hold any significance? Obviously not.

    You continue to twist logic to your own biased ends and avoid questions.

    I can take some satisifaction in being a part of the charge against you on this forum. You have been exposed, indicted, convicted, and after this thread -executed.

    Why don't you change your name and join another forum? It can be a new beginning... elsewhere.

    Nice degradation of a post. Starting from a list of titles and fights and ending with a ******. :) Shows level of discussion very well.

    No he is just stating facts in every bit of his statement, and you have still not named a heavyweight with a better resume than ali.

    You calling this a fact?

    If you paid attention to what I was saying, I didn't compare Ali with other heavyweights. I compared him with greater fighters from other weights, who have better and deeper resumes.

    That doesn't matter compare ali with any heavyweight and his resume is good and perhaps the best of all time, you are trying to degrade this by using fighters that fought in a lower weight class so how is that a fair comparison. Sam langford and some of the other don't have better resume's, obviously some of the other's do but ali isn't regarded as the best boxer ever just one of the top 2 heavyweights of all time.

    Comparison of greatness of fighters is not limited to one weight only. People often claim how his opposition was great, well it wasn't that great compared to many other great fighters, why call his opposition that then? Ali was a great fighter, but his resume is overrated, to try to make almost every opponent he faced as a quality fighter, even though the film and the contemporary sources don't show it as high quality as Ali's defendants like to claim.
    Sam Langford fought a much tougher line of opponents than Ali could dream of.
