    Both in their primes. Does Ali rust Dr. Steelhammer, or does Klitschko fatten the Louisville Lip?

    Ali by TKO in ten. Wlad is cut to ribbons.

    Prime Ali would take a clear decision. The Ali that fought Cleveland Williams, would have Wlad covering up quite a bit, and he would have trouble finding Ali. IMO.

    Ali might find trouble with wladimir's left hook and jab but his lateral movement will throw klitchko off along with the speed I see Ali beating wladimir decisively

    Pre exile ali dances circles around him and wins on cuts within 11 rounds or cruises to a clear UD.

    Post exile Ali has a thrilling war dictated by who can establish their jab. Wladmir wants ring center and for ali to come to him, ali wants to be on tge outside waiting for wladmir to come to him. I could see it going back and forth round by round with each guy having his moments.

    Wlad would have no choice but to let his hands go at some point since nobody wins rounds over ali by throwing a few sissy punches and hugging. Hed also find it difficult to clinch ali who had underrated physical strengtg and was a better inside fighter. Ali had a hell of a right hand and wlad has a hell of a left hook so they both could hurt each other or trade knockdowns. I see Ali winning by split decision over 12 as long as hes in shape.

    Ali by decision. But it isn't easy.

    Klitschko. Ali will dance and steal rounds with pitter-patter flurries but eventually Wlad's jab 'n' grab tactics, leaning all that bulk on him complete with pushing Ali/Clay down and possibly even puts him down and out with a signature left hook.

    Klitschko by decision most likely, possibly close, or possibly a KO for Wlad.
