It is nitpicking though ICB, because honestly, Doug Jones? He beat Jones anyways. They aren't gifts they were close. Chavez - Whitaker was a gift, Ali never got any gifts there are very very strong cases that he has legitimately won every fight that he is won. The Jones fight was a good one, but Ali won comfortably imo. Jones certainly didn't win.

Ali isn't a great for his wins over Cooper and Jones, so for arguments sake, lets say he did lose those, would he still not be the greatest heavyweight of all time? He would be number 2 at the very worst.
