It's a fair point but people hold Ali to a higher regard due to his political movements, along with being a heavyweight and being able to move the way he did. After the ban of his licence he wasn't the same fighter coming up for long, his peak was short. Similar to Mike Tyson. And like Tyson and Roy Jones Jr there was a moment in time they were the "best ever" and were seemingly unbeatable. Ali talked the talk like nobody else and walked the walk beating fighters who ran through everyone. At the cost of his health as you mentioned. I suppose its what you like, and everyone can agree the last few years of Ali's career was horrible to watch. Floyd very rarely had a bad round. Never mind fight ✅️

What ? What a ridiculous concept for a debate... Let me put it into context for you & only for you ... Ali fought the best there was & ducked nobody. Floyd inserted so many clauses into his opponents terms & conditions it became a joke and got everybody fooled. One was & became the sport, the other manipulated the sport. "sweet science of boxing" my ass ! It's a pugilist sport where prize fighters fought for their livelihoods in a far greater risk to reward sport. Floyd in that era ? Nope Ali ? In this era ? Would fit right in. Why ? Because HE WAS THE SPORT Oh & if Floyd wants to comparing records ? Sugar Ray Robinson puts that little fraud to bed with a hot water bottle & a bedtime story.

Great in their own way my freind mayweather is a great defensive fighter Ali was the greatest showman on earth In his day and fury is just the goat 🐐

What are u on a about? Floyd faught like a chicken, back foot fighter n only fighting on counter, whilst ali slugged it out with the best heavyweights in history!! Floyd faught guys that where always smaller than him in natural weight n size!! You ever see floyd fight anyone taller than him?? No not me either!!

@@Certified_DonniE Oscar dela Hoya was taller than Floyd and he never fought aggressive because his hands were brittle but in early years he fought aggressive Floyd style was abt not having brain damage which is why ali was the one with the brain damage so boxing is not all about slugging it out all the time because it’s bad for the fighters.

No, he just was fighting his sparring partner in an exhibition match lmao

Ali's match was exhibition match. They're not even that serious

@@calebbethag8tst711 they gone look for any excuse to say Ali was the greatest

It was michael dokes on an exhibition bout, but actually dokes went to be a champion on the early 80's

Lmaoooo😂😂😂😂😂😂 fury is a great example of what fighters body shouldn’t look like

No foreman isn't in this video you tryping man

@@azplugged4465 yes he is way to fat and heavy

Yeah a plumber throwing punches on you you could do that too … Frank Bruno would beat fury not even Lennox or Holyfield

100% couldn't have said it any better 😂

watch the vid of him in the octagon he crossed it in 2 steps nbs lol

AND….. completely deceptive. There is no way looking at Fury you would ever believe he had that kind of mobility. Just to look at him you would think he looks awkward, slow, and lumbering. His stature is almost an optical illusion because he is so big your brain thinks “slow and cumbersome” but he has mad skills in the ring! I don’t know if he is the best of all time, that would be saying an awful lot, but he is certainly the best of this generation for sure! Not even a contest

​@@raywideman7157 Floyd???

It was so slow

During an exhibition tho

@@DeeTeaDee could YOU do that? Exhibition or not, it’s still impressive.

@@RelevantTerror its levels tho mate. Exhibition versus an actual FIGHT where the guy is trying his best to put you down. There should a difference and you shouldnt need to ask

@@DeeTeaDee okay, you’re right to some extent but we’re talking about a dude who HAS fought the best. Every fighter built their reputation beating up cans.

@@RelevantTerror I agree. I think Fury beats em all. It’s just a shame he doesn’t share this belief anymore.

Fury is much better

@@britishpatriot7386 dream on

@@britishpatriot7386no he’s slow as hell, his weight and height advantage is the only thing that keeps him from losing against the scrubs he fights, wilder was the only fair/close matchup, this is why we need a super heavyweight division.

It is all relative. The boxers of today's era would all destroy the boxers of Ali's era.

The boxers today have no skill. Big and slow. No technical, natural ability, or talent.

@@asabovesobelow4444 When you grow up you'll understand

I think you better look at Alis record he didn't always fight the best.

That man is probably taller than Ali. Tyson is 6’9”

Fury is 6,9 the midget is around 6ft 6,1ft So taller than you

That wasnt foreman. If it was Ali would have doed right there

youre a f******** idiot

@@gehaket Ali’s tallest competitor is only 6’4. Fury has been fighting opponents that are 230+lbs and beyond 6’4. Ali would be considered as a small heavyweight if he fought in today’s era.

With high level opponents too

​@@24OakRaiders weirdo

@@IRunYou you need to read more. Many events on tv are staged. From athletes, rappers, tv reporters, leaders, and actors. They all play a character to deceive you and to give you false hope. You think Tupac was shot five times? You think 50 cent was shot 9 times? You think refs can’t influence the outcome of a game? It’s all by design. Wake up. I’m glad you called me weird because I want no ties with the masses. Go eat your popcorn and continue to believe everything on tv and miss out on the real meaning of life. I hope one day you’ll get to feel the sun and breathe real air.

@Firas Taher thanks for proving that you're a weirdo, show ke proof of everything you said drop links, your fake woke

That’s the problem it’s nostalgia you’re talking about but actual skill. So boxing and boxers haven’t evolved? They were better 30 years ago than now? Stop man just stop. You know how many loses he ended with? Talking about greatest

@@antonycaesar8335 of course they have evolved and of course sports lives from competition. But there are things in life you should not do, and that is one of it. Ali is just a Legend that Fury never will be Ali is just matchless in every point of view. Ist like comparing valentino Rossi with Marc Marquez or jimi Hendrix with Eminem. Just impossible. And to the question if they were better 30 years ago? Definitely Yes, guys back then were just different breed, those guys were real killers. Best example is mike Tyson. Im sure you can put 15 -17 year old mike tyson up against nearly every boxer nowadays and he will eat them for breakfast easily

Why not

@@antonycaesar8335 I agree a little. I don’t judge his last two losses and neither should you. You also shouldn’t FOCUS on losses so much either because Fury is protecting his ZERO way too much. Its not about the zero as much as its about who you FIGHT. Fury and Wilder are ruining the division today with their ducking. Plus Ali beat every man that beat him excluding the last 2 fights that shouldn’t have been allowed . Fury is just hiding behind the undefeated too much now. We can ALL be undefeated if we dont take bloody risks ffs! Whats he done since beating vlad & wilder? Really??? Lets be honest I say this as a very frustrated Fury fan as well. I believe he beats em all. But as of today, he is still ducking Usyk. Getting ridiculous now.

Fury living in these delusional people's heads. Fury is unbeaten

That’s not George Foreman , that’s an exhibition fight, against a sparring partner

That doesn’t make a goat in athletics, though. He was more of a pop icon. But great boxer , nonetheless.

@@nightmind919 the reason Ali was a better champion than Floyd is that he was the peoples champ, the man had heart for what he loved and believed in, Floyd gotta walk round with guards all the time

Your acting as if Tyson is a journeymen dudes undefeated in one of the hardest divisions to stay undefeated every punch is a knock out punch. If we are talking in the boxing ring and record tyson.

Ok boomer..... Some of us had to raise ourselves it's called going thru a struggle dipshit unlike u who had a mom to silver spoon the shit outta them

Amen

Who disrespected Ali? The video is comparing Ali and his rope-a-dope against the current heavyweight champ, Tyson fury…whose record and boxing skill are ABSOLUTELY on par with the greatest heavyweights of all time. Fury isn’t some bum we are comparing to Ali….he’s the modern day Ali in terms of his wacky style and excellent evasiveness. Not to mention, fury is 6”9, moves as quick as he does, has a phenomenal reach, and has a chin made of solid goddamn granite (got put flat on his back against Wilder on 2 occasions, two different fights…both times, rose like the Holy Spirit and proceeded to outbox the man who had flash knocked him. Tyson fury is special. Just like Ali was.

Ik u old😂😂

I can't even believe we have to clarify that this video is just to pay homage to Ali. Everyone knows he didn't 1st and he did it best. There are you satisfied?

100% moves so well 👏🏼

He is the champ to wtf u talking about?🤣 tyson would murder ali lol, different times today old man

You have never been that height. Why is that more impressive?? Against a taxi driver??

Yeah... and Mr Fury is fighting a cab driver mate

Regardless Mate, Fury was fighting a professional fighter in an actual contest where real punches with the intent to incapacitate him, where being thrown. Ali was performing in an EXHIBITION in a controlled setting where the outcome was preordained as mere entertainment. His " opponent " a young Dokes who was his sparring partner, was throwing show punches that were obviously being pulled to make Ali appear as though he were unhittable. Had this been a REAL Dust up, Dokes who was much faster than Ali, especially at this point, would have undoubtedly connected because he would most certainly not ignored Alis wide open midsection. And he would have feinted Ali instead of throwing such ridiculous predictable punches advertising their delivery to Ali. Ali could not even do this" shake and bake" in his better days against Frazier,Jimmy Young or Ken Norton. It is quite foolish to think he would have been able to do this in a professional bout to a Fighter like Michael Dokes who was faster than Young, Frazier and Norton by a country mile. Dokes was entering into his physical prime having astounding reflexes and top flight speed whilst Ali was in progressive decline. In no scenario does Ali do this in a serious bout where Dokes isn't restricted to being simply a foil to Alis ACT. Dokes would have exposed Ali in a very embarrassing way.

There's still time! Ali did as much out the ring as in the ring though!

Thats the thing people don't really appreciate actual boxing skill. There are so many better boxers than Ali but people go for most famous.

Nobody will

Ali is only called the greatest because he named himself 'the greatest' unfortunately ali wasn't the best fighter of his generation let alone of all time.

I would absolutely dodge every one of those also.

It was an exhibition

Ali's was an exhibition match, against friend and sparring partner, Fury was against a guy trying to knock him out

Also got leveled by a five foot 10 Frazier
