    Basically ALL of them.

    A shorter list would be the guys that Muhammad Ali MAYBE could beat. But you would just deny anyway.

    Take for example your quip just now about Adamek. Adamek fought at HW around 215-220lbs. And he was absolutely ripped like no opponent in the golden era ever was (not even Norton).

    Adamek is effectively the same size (except height) as Geroge Foreman, the STRONGEST boxer of the 70's! but with a far higher quality of weight (Geroge was actually a little on the skinny side) and more importantly, Adamek has real boxing skills whereas Foreman is perhaps one of the least skilled champion boxers (atleast in the 70's). What you call a "small boxer today" would have been a mammoth in Ali's times.

    And then there's Mormeck. What was a disgraceful mismatch for Wladimir, dubbed "too small to compete" was effectively bigger than Ali, Frazier, Norton and only 1lb less than the average fighting weight of Foreman, except faster, better skilled and more athletic than any of those guys.

    If Muhammad Ali had ever fought Tomasz Adamek or Jean MArc Mormeck, they would have been regarded as possibly the BEST opponents he had ever faced and would be both heralded as a proof of the superiority of that era and YOU WOULD BE LAUGHING STILLL at how todays supersized HW's couldn't match the "skills" of such fine specimens as Adamek and Mormeck which don't exist anymore.

    They are viewed as limitingly small competitiors TODAY, NOT with regards to yesterday.

    Your rating Muhammad Ali, who in reality suffered 11! losses (featherfist Berbick, Holmes, bum-beater/cruiser cruncher chinny Shavers, bum cruiser featherfist Young, chinny Norton x3, handicapped featherfist chinny Frazier x2, bum green cruiser Spinks and Ron Lyle. In addition to these, which half were ripped off, he never scored a proper KO against a decent opponent and received assistance in many other fights and pleanty of other gifts.

    There is no other boxer with such a manufactured career as above. From start of career, right through to finish!

    If ANY current boxer ever lost to such opponents as these today even ONCE, they would be bummified beyond measure by every boxing board and you know it!

    Such boxers DO still exist. Today we call it "cruiserweight". And in the case of bummy records, we call it "amateur".
