Prime George Foreman vs. Prime Joe Louis.

[El Kabong]

25 defences is a great achievement and no one can take that away from him and even if he ranted and raved he would still be 2nd in my book.

Yeah and I get that, I do....you're rating Ali's competition higher than Louis' and that's fine but I just see it differently and that too is fine. 25 consecutive successful title defenses is a tangible, measurable record....if Ali was dropped in Louis' era could he have accomplished that? We can guess but we'll never know. We DO know however Ali couldn't match the accomplishment in his own era.

We also know that Ali did not get knocked out and lose whilst he was young and up and coming fighter.

Because his trainer cut his glove to buy time....but sure

Glove was cut any way and it would not have made any difference.

Sure thing, whatever makes you happy @Master



I guess one of these days I'll learn to keep my view to myself
