What would happen if Klitschko called out Ali's opponents?

[Max Power]

Foreman had genuine and natural power, just because Grant may be bigger does not mean he hit harder. Power is also about technique, timing, surprise and speed. The calibre of top fighters in the 70's were better hence why they may not have great statistical records. Fighters today try and protect their 0.

@Master

The calibre of the 70's opponents was definitely not better! Let me ask you, how do you know the real quality of Ali's opponents, or Frazier's or Foreman's? How do you know the records and the quality of the opponents their opponents fought against? Are you telling me you've watched the couple thousand fights the opponents of these guys fought respectively?

I will tell you I have seen enough to make an honest assessment and I believe in one thing. That athletes and sportsmen get better and better as time goes by and it's a no brainer really. Everybody knows this! But people like you will try to bury the obvious in favour of your cultist attitudes toward the modern era. It happened to Ali in his time when everybody thought Marciano and Louis would have flogged Ali, it happened to Tyson, it happened to Lewis, and it's happening now.

Today's boxers are "visibly" not only bigger but far more skilled, faster and more athletic on average than the entire generation your are promoting. I'm not talking individuals or champs now, there will always be special circumstances, but in general the overall quality of this era shits all over the era of the 70's. When Klitschko beats an opponent, that opponent not only has a better record, he has it against opponents who had a better class of opponents as well.

Yesterdays contenders would be todays tomato cans!

I agree with you that power is more than just size, how stupid do you think I am! Thing is, Grant throws a cleaner punch than Foreman, you can SEE it! Grant knocked out REAL HW opponents, George knocked out tomato cans and cruisers mainly.

When George won the title from Frazier, check out his next fight. He defended his title against a guy named Jose Roman, watch it it only goes a round or 2. This is not an accurate measure of a mighty puncher, any HW today that is regarded as punch weak could not fail to knock this opponent out! And this was a TITLE DEFENCE! Wake up mate! This was another prime example of the "highly skilled golden age of boxing". Only a drunk could see this as a masterful boxing performance!
