    Yeah, you did a whole thread on this and was owned in it. Should have taught you something.

    If you want to do General style trolling like this, have at it, but you won't be taken seriously by other posters here.

    So you’re going to refute LITERAL film because you’ve got nothing? I think you should reconsider “owning” this isn’t a competition, this is a forum there is no winning lol you’re as cookie cutter boring as everyone else in this shameful echo chamber. Why don’t you go along to the thousandth “did he hit hard or really hard thread” and try and “own” someone else. :rolleyes:

    Again, your trolling MO: Pretend something hasn't been answered before.

    For the last two minutes Ali walks Foster down without throwing, except for one brief burst that staggers Foster. During these two minutes Foster lands repeatedly (as one does when the other guy is coming forward but not throwing anything), but mostly to the body and nothing that bothers Ali.

    So your big reveal is two minutes of Ali hardly throwing but coming forward and taking body shots but not being bothered, in fact being the one delivering the damaging blows. In what was a nothing fight for him.

    A much more focussed prepared Ali took actual hurtful blows in just about every round against Foreman. MacFoster was more of a sparring session in comparison, where he won just about every round. The Foreman fight on the other hand was a gruelling fight for him where he was fully switched on and gave the very best he had. The comparison is laughable.

    So, that's you answer once again and all the time I will waste on you.

    So how am I wrong? Sloppy, predictable and small Foster lands at will and not just for this round. Bonavena the slug did too, my point isn’t Ali isn’t that great of a boxer in the purest terms which you agree with.

    Ali looked out of shape and apathetic vs. Mac Foster and the dude still did nothing to him. If this was Ali (of the Mac Foster fight, in the 2nd round) vs. Tyson Fury, my prediction would change. But it isn't, so it doesn't.

    I feel like Ali would be thrown off fighting someone as big, agile and skilled as Fury. He might pull off the upset, but I’d favour Ali in rematches.

    Ernie Terrell was far bigger than Ali and a champion, too.

    He wasn't far bigger he was just taller. Ernie was skin and bones, and not as good as Fury

    Not to say Ali wouldn't win
