    and the response was to rob this name is a different name did you change name or pretending to be troll rob and yea like San Said those fights were big fights no matter if the names wasnt big names at the time it was big fights which means a lie was said on mike never won any big fights

    and yea mutiple other lies have been said from rob and other legend trolls Its old pages still that show everything said over years

    nobody can ever post me saying somebody like louis or anybody from that time or before can beat anybody from 70s-90s it wouldnt happen but I see people lying all the time acting like that era and before could beat the times I listed

    Comeback Foreman for me. If you had a no name fighter with an upset KO over Moorer, a few decent wins, a questionable win over Stewart, and a loss to Morrison you probably wouldn't hear much about him anymore. Its remarkable what he accomplished at that age, but that version would lose to lots of average fighters

    I say young George cause the old George you talk of was overrated but if we put those skills and toughness on the young George he is a tough match for mutiple legends

    so that's the reason why people do rate the old George higher cause of the reason I said they see had he had those skills and toughness when young he would do way better and wouldnt had lost to jim and gives a tougher match to ali

    the young George in his less skill and toughness would lose to multiple legends which is why that one is overrated

    Although I don't normally even try to rank boxers on a pound for pound basis, I do understand the concept. With that said, if it was a head to head list, I would not consider Ali overrated compared to those you mentioned, including Charles as a heavyweight. If we're talking pure legacy, on a pound for pound basis, then that's a different story. If Ali and Robinson were the same weight, I have no idea who would win. I suppose a smaller Ali would be even faster than he was, and a heavier Sugar Ray would be slower than he was. If such a fight is ever possible, I would just sit back and watch it.

    They all get overrated but Holmes is the one guy who went from underrated to overrated
