    I`m starting this thread in response to someone that said Ali from the Lyle fight would have decisioned Mercer from the Lewis fight, I disagree and point to the fact that Mercer managed to give Lewis hell while Ali was doing nothing v Lyle then rallied and turned it around, no way could Ali at that stage have stopped Lewis, I`m adding a poll, would Ali from the Lyle fight really have beaten Lewis from the Mercder fight?

    No imo, Ali would have lost.
    Lewis would have gotten a decision win over Muhammed, can't see him turning it around on Lennox and stopping him.

    75 Ali does way too less damage and pressure to care Lewis achilles heel: the chin. Too slow and not enough reach to deal with a young Lewis to win a decision as a second option.
    In fact this would look pretty ugly for Ali. The best Ali could do is keep Lewis busy to lose a decision before Lewis takes this to the street.

    Be a lot easier to do that to Ali in the late 70`s than in his prime, his chin was far more solid than Lewis`s.

    FRANK Bruno was floored during an earthquake when his punchbag hit him back.

    Ali had more speed and landed more jabs, he also had better movement than Lewis. His chin was far stronger also and he beat far better fighters too.
