Lewis over Ali is bold to me...
Bruno over Wilder just hurts

What
Prime Vitali would smash AJ. Wouldn't even be competitive I don't think

i think it would, but Joshua would end up losing, he wouldnt be able to keep Vitali off him for the full 12 rounds and he isnt going to stop him
 
Vitali beats Mike Tyson but Joshua beats Vitali?

As I've said numerous times, elite boxers rarely make good boxing analysts. I'd put the opinion of every boxing forum regular over Floyd's opinion any day.

There's an easy explanation for some of those head-scratching picks. Bias. Floyd has never really liked Mike Tyson or Ali for that matter. He does like Joshua and has offered to work with him before.

Mike has insulted Floyd severel times in the past, but what's his beef with Ali? He was already a sick man during Floyd's childhood.

Floyd may not like that people rate Ali so highly in general. He may feel threatened by it because he's "TBE" and all.
 
I agree with several of his picks including Lewis over Ali. I would favor Lewis mainly due to his combination of size & skill. He had the tools and attributes to beat any heavyweight out there IMO.
I'm actually a pretty big Lewis fan, I think he's one of the top 5 HWs in history but I don't know. Its hard picking against a prime Ali. I'm trying to think what Lewis did that Ali never saw before.
 
Frazier surely beats Wladimir Klitchko if Corey Sanders did...

I dont think Wlad is anywhere near those guys.

He can both punch and box.

Larry Holmes might beat Lewis though. Thats a tough one. maybe 50/50 Its more styles than strenght in these match-ups.

Who has the better career is a separate question

Ali's never been in with someone as big & skilled. Lewis would be significantly heavier in the ring on fight night, much longer, a couple inches taller, physically stronger and arguably the most powerful guy he's ever faced (aside from Foreman). For Ali to give up that many advantages when he was used to having size and/or reach over his opponents would be very difficult to overcome. If the stats are accurate then Lewis would've had a half foot of reach on Ali. The latter relied a lot on his pull counter to get respect but that's not going to work well against a much rangier opponent. Ali's also never seen an inside game like Lewis has. Floyd probably views it similar to the way I do. When 2 great fighters face each other usually it's the bigger one that wins more often than not.
 
I agree with all of this tbh. Mayweather definitely studies the game which makes sense considering he enjoys gambling. Those are solid picks for anyones money.
 
I like this, he took his time thinking about it. It wasn't rushed so these are I believe his solid analytical picks.

So good for him.

But I think prime Cassius Clay/Ali would have danced around Lennox Lewis quite easily. Lewis is too predictable in his moves. Yes he's a giant with incredible power, but he's an easy target and easy to read.

I like those picks, my only question is when he was thinking, was he deciding who would win or who would piss people off more?
 
Lewis was legit when motivated. I disliked some of his fights. I think prime Vitali would destroy AJ.

But I respect his opinion

Lewis would be a very different proposition for Ali. Every physical advantage there is would be in his favor. It's hard enough to overcome one or two of them but Ali would have the whole deck stacked against him in that regard. Lewis is a full weight class bigger. He could use his half foot reach advantage to force Ali to come to him. Ali's used to dancing around on the outside against guys with less or similar reach to him. He wouldn't be able to do that here. Even if he could get past that ridiculously long reach of Lewis the threat of his murderous right hand will always be there. Whenever they got close Lewis could just lean on him and beat him up on the inside. He's a lot heavier. Ali had no inside game, Lewis is nasty in close.
