Comparing athletes across generations is tough, and we should factor in how they compared to their peers at the time. Even so, prime 1960s Ali was untouchable in more ways than one - unbeatable and virtually unhittable with superhuman reflexes. He was freakishly exceptional, gifted with natural talent. Just imagine Ali with today's nutrition and training. Scary. I'd say he's cemented as the GOAT. Meanwhile, Usyk will certainly go down as one of the GOATs.

@@rediii9239 Top 10 boxers of all time? I think it’s possible he’s broken into that, but are you insane saying there’s no doubt? Have you seen some of the names that there are on this list? Forget amateurs, many fighters won Olympic gold etc. it means nothing, we’re talking about pro boxing, although we can name people like Ray Robinson who went 84-0 with 69 KO in amateurs and as a pro was undisputed in 2 divisions multiple times having gone on an 89 fight win streak. Or Ali who beat multiple generations of legendary fighters during the golden age of heavyweight boxing, including peak Foreman who even 20 years later became world champion. Or Joe Louis who had 26 defences of his world title. Or Pacquiao who won titles in 8 divisions, or Mayweather who beat the who’s who in a good age of lightweight and welterweight boxing. Or Henry Armstrong who held 3 of 8 glamour division world titles at one time and went 27-0 in 1 year with 26 KOs. Or Roberto Duran who was a career lightweight and won titles as high as light heavyweight. And there are many other legendary achievements in the history of boxing. Usyk is a great fighter and I’m being generous when I say he could break in with these guys, because some of the achievements of these guys are other worldly. And discrediting Ali in poor taste when it’s long been said this era has an overrated set of heavyweights. The only legit heavyweights Usyk fought taller than him are AJ and Fury, unless we’re also counting the legendary Dubois.

Take the romanticism out of it and look at what he’s achieved - it’s simply phenomenal. I struggle to say greatest of all time because when we talk about boxing we also talk about the legacy and how certain fighters became cultural icons and transcended the sport. Think of Ali and how he took a stand against going to war, and going to prison for his views. Yes some will say ‘that’s not in the ring’ but his aura in that sense elevated the sport in a way many upcoming fighters will always struggle to overcome. And that’s no sleight on Usyk who I absolutely love as a fighter and how he comes across - seems like a genuine good guy. It just means that many will struggle to call anyone the other than Ali the GOAT.

The people do not even realize how hard it is to fight against a guy who is 5kg heavier than you, but not even 15 kg it's immense advantage and gigantic reach advantage and usyk beat 3 OF THEM

Yes he is (of this era only, he's not moving Ali or either Lewis). I'm a massive, massive Fury fan but the truth is the truth. Fury imo, had the chance to take his spirit. He had him hurt at times but seemed to hesitate after key body shots. The clowning around, goading, showing off at times, not wise from Fury. It was too close at times but ultimately it comes down to woulda, shoulda, coulda. Fury had chances to win this but Usyk's technique and IQ can't be ignored. Simple as that. It should have been stopped in round 9, Fury has amazing recovery skills but if the ref doesn't intervene he goes out on his back.

​@johnsonanum I do. He has set countless records. 350-15 Amateur record -national champ -European champ -world champ -Olympic Gold -WBSS champ at semi pro -CW champ in just his 10th fight -Unified CW, wins MA tournament and becomes undisputed CW In just his 3rd HW bout, becomes unified HW champ -6th bout, Undisputed. He's beaten all the top dogs; first time, on their own turf, as the B-side, no questions asked, no difficulty in negotiations. He just lives his craft. 22 fights and undisputed in the two blue ribband weight classes... And above all... He now has John and Tyson Fury trying to figure out how he was born... Because it surely can't have been from his mother...😉
