    To answer the original question, yes I think Ali was the greatest ever heavyweight.

    Over Louis and Marciano he enjoyed a size, speed, reach, weight and movement advantage.

    Over Johnson he had ring generalship and combinations.

    I feel Ali at hois peak was the best and would have difficulty only with Holmes, Lewis and Norton.

    It was his ability to fight in or out that made him a nightmare to deal with. He had the power to slug with you if he had to,but he could also disapeer on a moments notice. He had the weirdest but the best footwork of any heavyweight Ive ever seen,combined with a hook that could drop you dead.

    That hook finished Oscar Bonavena.
    Foreman and Frazier couldn't do that!
