For sure. Men want p**** and women want money. End of story.

Why do some guys keep saying this?

Ali was never counted out in his career. He fought guys who hit just as hard as Tyson, namely Frazier, Foreman, Liston and Shavers. He could take a punch and recover as well as any fighter in history.

Did Holyfield even get knocked down, much less out, in two fights with Tyson? Did Lewis get knocked down? Douglas took his best punch and got up. Douglas will never be confused with Ali.

The guys that keep saying this are the same guys who saw Tyson hitting a punching bag and swore he would annihilate Jake Paul, lol. The Tyson lovers can not look at him objectively. They view him as invincible when he was proven to be anything but.

If we really could have these all time heavyweight matches Ali (Clay) would be the betting favorite against any champion in the history of boxing.

I am not saying he would win every match up, just that he would be favored.

For boxing fans there is a good YouTube channel named Fantasy Fights 2.0 where he matches fighters from different eras, complete with some video highlights, analysis and his prediction of who would win. They are very entertaining. He is knowledgeable and level headed, in my opinion, with his predictions but about 20% of the time I don't agree with his outcome. That is certainly understandable when you are matching up fighters from different eras and guessing how the different styles, power, boxing ability, stamina, chin, determination, etc. would affect the outcome.

Some examples of his Fantasy fights are Corbett vs. Marciano, Fury vs. Foreman (I didn't agree with his choice), Dempsey vs. Johnson, Louis vs. Frazier (didn't agree but this is certainly a 50/50 fight), Usyk vs. Tyson, Hagler vs. Monzon, etc.

He predicted Canelo to beat Crawford in a very close fight, we know how that turned out. Sometimes I think he favors modern boxers slightly more than I would. In my view he doesn't lend enough weight sometimes to the determination, grit and hard life experiences that many of the older fighters had. Those guys were tough!

To me Julie Andrews is the greatest combination of singing talent, acting talent and beauty ever.

The Sound of Music is an incredible film but without her as the lead it wouldn't be as good, period. What an incredibly talented woman.

Dak is playing fantastic so far today and most of the year. He did have a couple of real clunker games this year though.

Imagine thinking Tyson could beat the all time greats, Ali included, when Tyson couldn't even beat Holyfield, Lewis, or Buster freaking Douglas! Lmao at these posters.

The two posters above me summed it up perfectly, well done.

I agree with the majority of posters here: Tyson is hugely overrated and Ali would box his ears off.

The thing Tyson fans never get (besides the fact that he lost to the best fighters he fought, Lewis and Holyfield, twice) is that he just wasn't as mentally tough as the great ones. Fighters like Ali, Frazier, Louis, Foreman, etc....no one intimidated them.

Intimidation was one of Tyson's greatest weapons but it wouldn't be a factor against the greats. Also, he didn't have the stamina that guys like Ali, Frazier, etc.
had. They were 15 round warriors with tremendous willpower.

As for Tyson catching Ali with a big punch, sure it is possible. It also more than possible, it is extremely likely, that Ali would get up like he always did and start whipping his arse again.

Top all day every day.

Madsen all the way.

I read he turned down the Vincent Vega role in Pulp Fiction. John Travolta sure is happy for that.
