Am I the only one who doesn't care if ALi died?

Cassius Clay won ONE Olympic gold medal.

There is a boxer who won Olympic gold medal in 1948, 1952 and 1956.

If you don't know who that is and claim that Clay/Ali is the greatest boxer, ever, you are blind and totally wrong.

When it comes to boxers, Olympians arent the best of them. Most boxers arent even in their prime when they win a gold medal. By the time they are in their prime, they dont spend their time fighting for no money.

For the record, Tyson in his prime would stomp Ali in his prime.

if Ali was able to take punches by Shavers,Forman,Norton and Frazier and other heavies of his day,im sure Tyson would not be able to knock him out.....and there is no way he could out box him,so how would he stomp him?...

Agree......... I watched all Ali's and Tyson's fight on videos.................. Ali is too smart for Tyson. Tyson will lost.

I am still waiting for someone to identify the boxer who won Olympic GOLD medals in THREE Olympic Games, which would put that achievement way above whatever Ali achieved at his own convenience.

he may have ...but if Ali could withstand shots by Shavers,Norton,Foreman and Frazier and other hard hitters of his day i doubt Tyson would fare any better.....lets just say this,if he didnt put him away early he would be out of gas by round 6 and would look like foreman did at the end.........

Teofilo Stevenson?...

Stevenson,Papp and Felix Savon all won 3 Golds in 3 different games in boxing.....so how does that put any of them above what Ali accomplished in boxing?....

I was wondering why this is getting so much air time. I really don't want to spend a lot of time on this man's death. Sad but I would really like to go on with my life.

When my MOTHER died, I thought the universe would stop on it's axis, and all the angels sing a dirge. We move on, life goes on. Cassius Clay, he was part of my life and I will hope he fares well in the next life. Celebrity means nothing.

I think Tyson in his prime had much better cardio than you're giving him credit for.

Ali proved he can go the distance and take a beating.....how many fights of Tysons went more than 6?....and what kind of a jaw does mike have?....mikes face would be a bloody mess from that jab,and if he could not take a punch Ali's overhand right would drop him after he punches himself out....it would be a great fight to witness ill say that....

No one cares if you care and cant move on with your life. No one is forcing you to spend a lot of time on his death. No one forced you to start a thread on it either.

Wasn't it an east European fighter? White guy?

All Tyson had was big knockout punches. Ali showed he could take those or make them wear you down. Foreman couldn't hit him. No way Tyson would have been able to put him out.

Tyson was a brawler,Ali's hand speed would have cut him up.....

If people are having a hard time answering your question that pretty much proves no matter what this mystery guy did he wasnt greater than Ali who is known everywhere in the world as the GOAT.

Or perhaps he lived in a small country ignored by the chauvinistic and self admiring bully like the United States.

Silly? Have you watched the films of Ali in his prime? Tyson was not as good a boxer as Ali. He had power, but none of the strategic ability Ali had.

Ali refused to fight for a corrupt dictator in a country 8,000 miles away. I don`t recall him ever being asked to fight for his own country. Most South Vietnamese didn`t give a shit so why should he or any other American risk their lives. As we all know now, as some knew at the time, the domino theory was rubbish.
