And I almost forgot..
One of the reasons Muhammad was such a champ in the 60's/70's was because we OUTWEIGHED 70% of his opponents (and Foreman a whopping 90%!)
With a median opponent weight of 200lbs flat, that is pathetic when viewed against the modern eras!
As far as HW boxing goes, the fun started with Mike Tyson and continues to this very day.
All previous eras are basically unwatchable except for educational purposes.
Don't get me wrong, I can APPRECIATE those times boxing. But I'd never make an outrageous claim like that was BETTER!
Take away Ali's, height and weight advantage, paint him white, and you basically have JERRY QUARRY! Fact! They were stylistically similar!
