    The Jimmy Ellis who defeated Oscar Bonavena, decking him twice in the process, may have done well for a few rounds against '64 Liston, as he did in the opening rounds against Joe Frazier in 1970. But ultimately Sonny has too much firepower and stops Ellis.

    ali at 22-25( body of man not adolescent), was a natural hw for sure, he never touched weights and he did not have even great muscles, and of course he had no fat and still he weighed 210-212 pounds in his peak, he had pretty big legs, ali was a natural hw, ellis was more a natural 180s pounder
