    By "Zaire",I mean rope-a-dope .So which other hard punching Champion would fall to Ali the same as Big George?
    Of course its a question of styles ,we know he couldn't do that to Frazier when he was champ ,but who do you think end's up not seeing final bell in Africa?

    Frank Bruno, he always gassed in his losses and punched himself out against Witherspoon.

    Riddick Bowe if he came into the ring overweight like he did for his rematch with Holy, plus if he threw the amount of punches he threw when he won the title then he would have gassed in the heat of Zaire.
