yeah I know, was just wondering tho

ali would beat him......either through points or TKO

OgidiOlu3:
Mayweather isn't fighting in the same division as Ali did.

That's why you are asked to think, imagine, not argue.

StriveHard:
be careful u would get urself shot for comparing muhammed Ali, sugar ray Robinson with mayweather. These two are miles ahead of him, it is even an abomination in the boxing circle to compare these two legends who prove themselves during the peak of boxing with someone that fights at the ebb of boxing Era.

Bebeto. Oyakhilome. Stop jumping.
Someone already compared him and I quoted the person. Of course Ali and the likes were heavy weights but the statement made earlier was IF they were in the same WEIGHT class.

Leave story with all that nonsense boxing legend shait. Mayweather is a legend in his own right. The Number one rule of BOXING is DO NOT GET HIT. He has done this so efficiently so give him his credit. Boxing is not streetfight so we are not trying to figure out who punches hardest or who knows how to throw 1 million jabs.
Boxing is about efficiency. Connecting the most punches and avoiding hits. Period.

mpowa:
All he needs is a single blow from Ali and he's a gonna, he can't possible escape all blows throughout a match, I don't even think he'll survive 1st round sef, Heavy weight blow they kill o! na bag of cement, I don't wish my enemy. - Moreover Ali was also a very fast boxer.

Stop misyarning. The comparison was based on them being in the same weight class. Jeez.
With regards to your statement about not being able to escape blows throughout a match - Have you ever watched a Mayweather fight? He has been doing this for over 18 years.

Wow really rare image. Ask queztions in one of the worlds best question and answer sites, www.asknote.co

The comparison was based on the fighters being in the same weight class. Take a chill pill.

He is one of us. Slavery turned him to a Yankee

Actually he his not, they are not our people. They hate Africans and call them do do eaters, booty scratchers, stinking Africans, hamites etc.

Was he Muhammed Ali then or Cassious Clay?

Yea, I later saw I misyarned, you're right, didn't read the post u responded to, but now with your new statement, I insist if he faced Ali the greatest, he can't survive 1st round, he go chop at least one heavy blow and that's it - Ali was an heavy weight but moves as fast as a light weight boxer.

There will always be another Ayton Senna,there will always be another Kareem Abduljabah,there will always be another Pele,there will always be another Sachin Tendulkar,there will always be another Roger Federer,there will always be another Usain Bolt but there will always be one Mohammed Ali.He transcended the sport of boxing,he was a generational icon like Coca-Cola,marvel comics and rock and roll.

You are going too far by comparing Mayweather with Ali the greatest ,pound for pound(fighting at the same weight-for other other readers who may not understand 'pound for pound').Even against 3 of the fabulous 4(Sugar Ray Leonard,Thomas Hearns,Roberto Duran)Mayweather would have lost(I didn't mention the 4th member of the fabulous 4,Marvin Hagler because Hagler was a Middleweight boxer and Mayweather never fought in the middleweight class.Mayweather is good but against Ray Leonard(speed,footwork,combination,heart),Duran(pressure fighter,heart,hands of stone),Hearns(best right hand in boxing history,speed,height,predator instinct) or even Wilfredo Benitez(perhaps the most aggressive defence in history) in their prime Mayweather will lose.

StriveHard:
muhammed Ali created his own style and violated every rule of boxing. His hands dangled loosely by his side while boxing.
u need to watch some of Ali match to understand that it doesn't matter how good u are, he would always find a strategy to beat you just like he did to Sony liston and George foreman. He may not be the heavy hitter, nor having the best defense but his endurance/stamina, his ability to take a punch (during his match with foreman who is consider the hardest hitting man in boxing), his psychology, his foot speed and also big heart are second to none in the history of boxing.
The qualities of Ali opponents is second to none unlike mayweather who cherry picked his opponent who are older or younger and usually run whenever he find an opponents that is at his prime.

I agree with you,Mayweather fought in a 'soft' era.In the era of Sugar Ray Leonard,Roberto Duran,Thomas Hearns and Wilfredo Benitez ,Mayweather would have been beaten silly.Those guys fought anything that came to them,3 of them even strayed into the middle weight class to dare the dreaded Marvin Hagler.

they are not ,so th assumption is not needed.

You can count the number of boys with shoes in that crowd. No wonder one of our past dismal leaders surfed to power on a "tale of no shoes". I wonder if Shoelessness = Cluelessness?

Ali my no1. sport legend!!!

We have come a long way.

My best boxer of all time.

Even Mike Tyson confessed in an interview that if he had fought Ali in 1965 when Ali was practically a killing machine in the ring, he (Tyson) would have been blown apart. Tyson made this statement after he was asked to review the fight between Ali and Cleveland Williams. Ali was a devastating combination of speed and punching power. Sadly, the US authorities took away his best years (1967 - 1970) and the Ali that came after then was not the same Ali of 1962 to 1967.
