Wladimir Klitschko DESTROYS Ali

I think Ali would have some trouble early on. But Wlad is a bit mechanic and predictable and even 60's Ali was perhaps the best fighter of all time when it came to adapt to the opponent. Sooner or later he would find Wlad's vulnerability and start exploiting it to the fullest. Wlad is a tough match-up, but Ali feasted on orthodox and predictable fighters.

Over 12 Ali races clear in the last third, perhaps winning 8-4, 9-3 or something like that. Over 15 this could be a TKO. Ali was no huge puncher, but he could smell wounded prey from a mile off, and if a tiring Wlad gets hurt he has virtually no chance of staying alive against a finisher like Ali.

I think Vitaly, with his unorthodoxy, would be a more difficult opponent to be honest.

 

Yeah on Fight Night Round 4 if you leave the ****in analogue stick unattended!

Other than that you need shot with puffy balls of your own ****!atsch

 

a good point. should have thought about it.
but what about chagaev ? byrd ? tony thompson ? jameel mccline ?
i know thompson is no ali but ali will face a bigger height disadvantage that thompson did.
ali should be given his puncher's chance , but i think wlad either stops him late or , more realistically decisions him. after all norton and spinks did , and holmes stopped him. so , i know ali was not prime against either holmes nor spinks , but , wlad is either one of them in h2h ability also.

 

over wlad ?
wlad won't land on him . not even once.
maybe if toney was ali's coach.

Ali would certainly have to adapt his style and gameplan for this fight, but given his intellect which was incredibly high, his athletic attributes, his chin, and his heart, I believe that he would find a way to win.

We're talking about arguably the greatest heavyweight of all times here.

 

And the reason why Wlad lost to Corrie Sanders is because Wlad only knows how to fight tall. Against Sanders who was practically the same size and who had superior handspeed, Wlad looked hapless and hopeless.

Even Tony Thompson gave him trouble, and Thompson has terrible boxing skills.

 

Although Wlad is a tremendous physical specimen and undoubtly a well schooled fighter he does not possess the rawboned toughness of hard men like Ali, Foreman, Holmes, his brother Vitaly. Once the going got tough and the bee starts to sting - then what? Will Wlad go into a panic mode or fight back harder? Ali had to dig down deep countless times and came through with flying colors. Wlad is an excellent fighter - the best HW around right now. But he is the best of mediocre bunch. After Ali starts to slip Wlad's jab and consistently land his own jab then I believe this starts to spell the end.

Ali TKO 12 Wladimir Klitschko

 

Corrie Sanders is arguably the most naturally gifted heavyweight to take up the sport there has ever been.

 

Wladamir would do better against Ali than many all time greats for stylistic reasons.

The fact that Ali is not an uber puncher reduces the pressure on his single outstanding weakness and gives him a lot more leeway.

I would probably give him more chance against Ali than against sombody like Sonny Liston.

That aside he is going to loose.
