Tyson Vs Ali. I know it's been beat to death, but I need help

[imp]

Anybody that thinks Tyson had any trouble with Ali is deluded.

Tyson stops Ali inside 5. No problems.

Look at the guys he fought, Liston and Frazier both looked half Tysons weight, plus Tyson hits Ali with body shots allllll night.

10 clean body shots has Ali put in a stretcher.

I'm sorry but nobody would have beaten prime Tyson, not Marciano, not louis, not Johnson and certainly not Ali.

I kind of agree with this but tyson never fought a type of ali opponent and ali never fought a type of tyson opponent (frazier is close but not tysonesque)

I cant really call this fight as ali had a grace around him in the way as he moved round the ring avoiding punches whilst having the speed to land right hand counters it was beautiful.

They both had such different styles but easily the best heavyweights of all time imho or in top 3 easily.

seriously, thank you guys for some great posts. I might as well spill the beans because I'm running in circles and the actual piece I'm writing will most likely never get finished. But the angle I took is young Tyson beats young Ali (which is open to some debate) and old Ali beats old Tyson (not even a question in my mind about this)

I think Ali might stop Tyson on cuts to be honest he seem to dice up peoples faces for some reason. As for fighters that give them trouble Foreman and Liston for Tyson they were big powerful and just as fucking mean as he was. As for Ali it have to be Holyfeild who i rate over Tyson think at his best he gives everyone a bad night guy had a heart like no one i have ever seen The other being Lewis who was great boxer and a fucking giant with a huge ass reach and power that be a nightmare for most people.
