    Would their trilogy have been so thrilling ? Some people have commented that it would n't have been. I disagree. Their fighting styles alone,would have made for good clashes in the ring,and their warrior like characters would have ensured it.

    Probably not, though it would still make an interesting trilogy.The animosity was the right spice for the mix.Shame Joe never got Ali on the streets after the first couple of fights, he would've hurt him.

    Anyone of them could have hurt the other on the streets. Both were tough as hell.
