I live in Australia mate and there are some ppl here who still admire Ali for instance but none of them believe he would do anything drastic at TODAYS HW division.

The running idea is that if he couldn't handle Frazier, he'd be stopped by Tyson and the giant HW's.

It's accepted virtually universally here that the further we go back generally speaking the less competitive they would be.

Do you think I just pulled these ideas out of a hat?

It seems to me only a predominantly American view that you guys share. Your view is one that flies in the face of every single other sport and even basic principles of life! It's retarded!

I wonder if they share your opinion in Eastern Europe? LOL

In short we are a neutral country and tell it how it is. You are from a biased position and cannot see through the cloud of your own delusions.
