    This is noones fantasy fight. I get the whole size difference thing but come on...the difference in skill level is insanely huge. The difference in natural athleticism is massive. Coordination, speed, natural ability and hard learned skills. Ali is worlds better in every regard aside from power and size. Wilder wouldn’t land a punch and even if he did Ali’s chin is more than proven. This is a joke of a fight. I’m not one of the guys always assumes past greats are far superior but in this case I don’t think it’s hard to see who the far superior fighter is. Ali by mid rounds stoppage after making wilder miss for 6-7 rounds and piecing him up everytime.

    People need to stop overrating Wilder's power. Stiverne made the distance as did Fury. Ali was leagues above them and had a much better chin than either. In fact Duhapas wasn't even dropped against Wilder but was ironed out by Povetkin. Foreman, Frazier and Liston all KO everyone Wilder has fought, Including Fury.

    Size? Ruiz just blasted out a top 3 HW who's at least 4 inches taller. And Wilder wasn't any Heavier than Ali.

    Ali was on another level in speed terms to Wilder and whilst Lacking fundimentals knew exactly how to box and was very ring savy. He'd know to circle to the right and tag Wilder with Lefts to the body and push his jab inside. Wilder doesn't KO Ali and can't outbox him. Ali can do both to Wilder.

    Ali by Embarrassing KO

    I think it would be like Fury v Wilder except Ali would have a much more difficult task than Fury because of the huge reach difference, one thing that may have tipped it in Ali`s favour was that he moved while jabbing whereas Fury stopped to jab and was caught at times by Wilder`s counter jab, I think this would have been interesting fight actually. Ali didn`t have power like Wilder but a much more proven chin, if Fury could hurt Wilder then so could a prime Ali, Wilder`s chin isn`t as proven as Ali`s was.

    Wilder by using his superior windmill ability. Wilder starts windmilling like crazy while screaming bomb squad!!! Untill Ali is down and out.

    The right hand that knocked Stiverne out in the rematch was harder than the hook Cooper dropped Ali with.

    So? It wasn't harder than the 30 right hands Shavers landed on him. Or the left hook Frazier landed. Or the damage Foreman did to the body or Liston in round 5. Wilder doesn't win

    No but it was as hard and completely pierced the guard, Wilder`s hands are far quicker than Shavers were.
