    Ali was a very high level pedigree fighter and he exhibited these characteristics all through his career. He has been rated at the best of all heavyweight champions for nearly 50 years.

    Usyk has less than 20 total pro fights, has beaten only AJ of note and AJ is nowhere near a great fighter. Usyk has yet to win the legitimate worlds heavyweight title.

    So you are comparing apples to oranges. No one truly knowledgeable in the sports history would rate Usyk at all at the early stages he is currently fighting. He has not proved himself an ATG fighter. Not even slightly.

    Also Ali’s fight with Mildenburger was a one sided bout. Mildenburger was scrappy but Ali took him apart and stopped him in the end.

    Is Usyk smaller than Ali though? They are about the same height at 6’ 3”, and other than a past-prime overweight Ali, they are roughly the same weight too.

    don't compare Uysk to a glorified punch bag

    Uysk wouldnt lose to american level fighters like Spinks and Norton

    You got me wrong, pal. I think this whole era of heavyweights is trash, Americans included. The fact that Fury is the best heavyweight out there speaks volumes to anyone that has watched boxing for more than a couple of years.

    Usyk is actually a lot heavier than prime Ali. 222 is way heavier than 60s Ali ever was

    Ali would've probably tried rope a dope tonight.

    I was thinking that too but I couldn’t find the data to verify, so I didn’t want to say it without being sure I was correct.

    Your opinion is based on your racist views.

    But i can understand why you are devastated, Wilder and Joshua getting battered by two Europeans.

    Do you have to have a Boxrec account and be logged in to see the weights?
