Cus changed his opinion. Why? He saw how a way older Ali, out of his prime, nothing like his former self, beat the best contenders. He could absorb punishment, probably better than any boxer in heavyweight history or boxing history for that matter. Cus said that Ali was unbeatable, to Tyson.
@michaelyouth One thing Cus was right about was when he stated "one day they'll tag you like that if you ever get into the ring, and when they do tag you like that ..we'll see how your legs behave.." A year later, Ali was dropped by a fraizer left hook"!
@Tusc9969 How did Ali behave? He behaved a lot better than Schmelling or Joe Louis. He was dropped after 15 rounds of severe punishment at extreme conditions, with great pace. Joe Louis never fought at that pace. He didn't even took a count while he was on the floor, got up took the 8 count and kept cycling. Also when Shavers tagged him or anybody who tagged him, he either tied them up, like he said in this video, or started moving.
I also believe that prime Joe Louis would have beaten a Prime Ali. Look at how much trouble Henry Cooper's jabs gave Ali. Louis would have pierced Ali's sloppy guard.
Hate to say it Joe, but you're a hater and Ali would have humiliated you.
