Which other ATGs would beat the version of Ali that Frazier beat?

Drunk or not, I pretty much agree, but then I'm hungover.

I'll say Tyson, if he's feeling loved that night, and as was discussed on another thread, I think Marciano does have a shot, has the right style to give Muhummad alotta trouble. Might have been Bummy Davis who said on that thread that Rocky would have thrown off his rhythm, a good point I think. Also Joe Louis always has a chance.

 

The only 1 of those with a shot is Marciano. None of the others have the stylistic abilities to beat even a '71 Ali

I'd say:

Lennox Lewis - slight favourate
Holmes - 50-50, or 40-60 Ali
Marciano - 60-40 or 50-50 like Frazier with a better right but maybe less intense
Holyfield - 60-40
Tyson - 60-40

No one else has a decent chance including Louis, Liston, Johnson, Dempsey.

 

I'm gonna miss you when you're sober again.

 

Tyson would have looked good for a few rounds with his quick hands and power ,but he didnt have the guts of a Frazier,and imo,would have become frustrated and start looking for a way out ,via ,either an arm break ,or an ear bite.Now, if Will Smith was in there, doing his Ali impersonation,,Mike would really have had something to go for! Chris ,I told you true ,Frazier on that night would not be denied,it broke my heart ,at the time ,but he won the fight.I have my doubts anyone could have beaten him ,during those 45 minutes.PS I will retract this later ,when I'm sober
