    You literally did not produce a single quote saying what you claimed everyone says, Swag called you on it and then you moved the goalposts and changed the narrative because you were talking rot and got owned. Even after that you've come back and said the same thing again literally within a couple of hours of getting exposed on it.

    At least i know the level i am dealing with.

    Most on this forum know what flaws Ali did and didn't have. Many of the forum have decided his combination of strengths and flaws are better than other heavyweights and favor him H2H as the best of them. It's hardly a stretch.

    I'd agree, while also favoring him, that he would have some tough outings across history yes. Not every fight would be easy or straightforward.

    I'm doubtful there are people here who think he would make "quick work of any fighter". You are off on a tangent again. There's no chance you can find me someone in here that picks Ali to win every H2H matchup to make "quick work" of everyone.

    Scale back on the hyperbole.

    I proved my point he tried to play a semantics game but in the end I was right and could def find even more if I cared to I just really don't because its obvious you people don't want to listen so w/e ignorance is bliss as they say and you people sure have a lot of ignorance to go around lol

    All most of us are saying Ali would be a very tough out for any heavyweight in history.

    You proved nothing. You could find "even more" but you didn't find a single one for heavens sake. None of those quotes mirrored your claims, and then you doubled down and repeated said unproven claims. You're just sprouting hyperbole.

    As soon as Swag said they didn't match your claims you hide behind "semantics", twice now.

    I can only assume at this point that English isn't your first language. That's the best case scenario.

    Max's right thumping ten times a round on Foreman's jaw would have ended the fight far sooner than the twelveth. Chin goes down with stamina depletion and Foreman tired much quicker than Louis did.

    I was pointing out the spirit of what they were saying which proved my point he was arguing pure semantics i.e they didn't say exactly what I said therefore I'm wrong. Two different frameworks sorry if you're too low IQ to understand that.

    Are you stupid???? They literally said Ali would make easy work of Usyk in the quotes I sent like come on bro maybe learn to read before accusing someone of not knowing English.

    I don't believe Schmeling could beat any iteration of Foreman. Too much man, too much tan.

    I hide it well but this is how I react when anyone dares to disagree with me (see below). It’s only momentary and then I collect myself to type out a calm reply.

    Also, just about every public toilet I’ve used on my toilet break sees a loss of internet connection - a lament that could’ve been included Alanis Morissette’s song Ironic.

    What am I supposed to do in the toilet otherwise - just sit there and focus in on taking a dump? How bloody boring!
