    I may be rebuked over this...but I actually felt a Parkinsons ravaged aged fat Ali deserved a draw versus the December 1981 Berbick

    As an Ali fan I appreciate it but I thought he looked awful. He was slow. That being said and I'm sure some will disagree but I believe SuperDome Ali beats him. He was younger and an in infinitely better shape.

    Ali gets annoyed at Berbick and lays the punishment on thick.
    He pours it on and stops him in the 15 th, sending Berbick to the floor 3 times.

    Another closer question.

    If they fought 20 times could anyone see Berbick winning say 2 of them?

    Honestly, no. He MIGHT get lucky with one but I doubt that. I think you'd have to replay the fight 50 times, to have any chance of a Berbick victory.

    1 vote for Berbick up there, we must have a Canadian in the forums.

    I love the Canadian people doe. Whenever we'd fight over there I always had a good time, good people.

    Berbick probably last the distance but Ali shuts him out,landing at will.
