sorry not 71 fights...Muhammad ali had 61 fights, 56 wins, 37 knock outs and only 5 loses.u fucking ignorant only 5 loses out of 56. his wins are over 90% u CUNT. What Muhammad Ali did in the history of Boxing, didnt happen so far and is not gonna happen again. he is the Greatest of all time. know that now u fucking CUNT. U might be a fucking racist.

Actually, Ali could have been 61-0. His first loss with Frazier, he took the fight too soon after over a 3 year layoff. He probably would have won against Norton the first time if his jaw hadn't been broken early. He gave away too many rounds(he could have won) against Spinks with the rope-a-dope and inactivity. Against Holmes and Berbick, he was sick(early Parkinson's), off two years,and far past his prime. He definetely shouldn't have fought(and loss), at least, those last two fights.

@bangitslo, thanks, finally someone supports me

@mbhotie715 Please don't say Parkinson's. It's an insult to all the people who actually have the disease. Ali has Parkinson's Syndrome, i.e. punch-drunk. Thsoe who have the disease have no choice, those who have the syndrome are almost exclusively fighters, and they certainly did.

@rome80222 i think u gotta put sugar ray above ali, only because of how many fights he had , alis the best heavyweight though

[bangitslo]

@kingdarius1991 Not only are you correct, but Don King needs to be hung by his balls. He had medical reports that SHOWED Ali could and should not fight. His disease is hereditary and he began showing signs of Parkinsons back in 1975, BEFORE the Thrilla in Manila. Ali actually failed physicals, but was allowed to fight, particularly before the Evangelista fight. Trust me, I have inside information.

The Greatest Of All Times in Boxing is Joe Louis, The Invincible is Rocky Marciano, The Greatest Comeback in History is Foreman and Clay/Ali is The Greatest Overrated Ever, The Greatest Lie of All Times, Ali The GLOAT!

[goldyn12345]

i think marciano was the best, he was only 5,11 but he was as strong as a bull!!!

[AliRidah619]

@goldyn12345 true but with ali foreman and the heavyweights now with the klitchko brothers marciano would have loss cause he was a small heavyweight and never fought big heavyweights even lous as great as he was was fighting mostly at 197 and marciano at 188 or 195

@LuvThoseLadies real shit man thats the same shit i say i was named after ali but i still think he was overrated i like him thoughhe was great but not the greatest and your right he gave himself that name and if he wouldn't have none would be calling him that

[daz70den]

love those ladies.. i thought i was the only larry holmes fan out here..his record is impeccable compared to all others..yes he wasn`t the most exciting or destructive but top quality for 13 years.unbeaten. say no more.

[goldyn12345]

rocky marciano was the best!!! unbeaten heavy weight champ, even beat joe louis, i know he was about 100 years old but still!!!
