Muhammad Ali - 25 World Heavyweight title fights - Losses to Norton, Frazier, Holmes, Berbick Corrie Sanders - 1 World Heavyweight title fight (2 if u count WBO) - Losses ALL by KO to Nate Tubbs, Rahman, Vitali, Osborne Machimana yeah, No doubt Ali would stand a chance vs THE SNIPER
I was thinking the same. No disrespect for Ali, who is an ATG in his own right, but he went life and death with a blown up CW. And Sanders completly flattened Wlad, who is much bigger and one of the most dominating champs ever. I think Sanders win by stoppage.
The only sensible post in the thread. While most have been trolling calling for a KO win for Sanders, the potential is there. Ali was far to willing to take shots. And Sanders power IS a bit much to take, even when rolling with the shots. A smart Ali would however, box smart for 4-5 rounds, possibly losing them while wearing on Sanders nerves. Sanders never fared well in the later rounds, and Ali would go to work on the body early and then start peppering Sanders with snapping jabs and crosses between the 6-8th rounds. No way this one sees the 10th round. A frustrated Sanders forgets he's a fighter and is stopped or T/KOd around the 9th or 10th.:deal
Good post. Sad though that a guy with such natural ability never focused enough to become a boxer. Yeah he went through the motions and looked good for a a stretch before Rahman, but I guess when you've got a 100,000 acres and 10,000 head of cattle, you aint hungering for much. :rofl
ALI lost to BERBICK who in turn was beaten by TYSON who was stopped by LEWIS who was EVT'd by VITALI who is recognised as not as good as his brother WLADIMIR who was KTFO by SANDERS So it's obvious a blowout looms here
Most fans dont know how to gauge a fight like this at all. So for them it just comes down to who they like. Sanders vs Ali would really be an ugly fight. Ali like to move in and out, Sanders a southpaw, they would be stepping on each others feet all night....
Prime Ali danced. Ali, wait. Yeah, they'd be stepping on each others feet all night. Either that or their feet would be stepping all over them.
Excuses atsch Stop looking at boxing through your rose tinted glasses, Sanders = beat Wlad (top 3 ATG) Ali = lost to Berbick (= bum)
