Ray Leonard stood toe-to-toe with Marvin Hagler.

And Leonard didn't stand toe to toe. he danced around a lot.

Ok, after reading some history on here's my dream bout:

Muhammad Ali vs. Wilt Chamberlain.

This fight was actually suppose to happen in 1971. Ali was 29 and Wilt was 35. However, Wilt backed down.

Wilt Chamberlain vs Muhammad Ali: An epic boxing match that never happened

In 1971, Wilt Chamberlain wanted to challenge Muhammad Ali in a boxing match for his heavyweight title. The match was supposed to take place in the legendary

Now, its my understanding that Wilt had never boxed in his life. And Ali would probably win. But it would be interesting to see, just how he could overcome an absolute athletic freak in Wilt Chamberlain. It could be, that Chamberlain could simply not take more than a few punches from Ali, before being KO'd/TKO'd.

Ali would have crushed Wilt. Wilt was no doubt a freak of nature, he was relatively slow and Ali would have gotten in 3-4 punches for every one Wilt attempted. Wilt probably realized he was gonna get killed in the ring and understandably declined to fight.

Wilt with the ladies tho. I don't think anyone will match him in that department.

It would’ve been over when Ali decided it to be over—being an athletic freak has no bearing on being able to take a punch from a years-trained heavyweight champion

Think some of you guys watch too many YouTube videos of Tyson pasting tomato cans & assume he'd do the same thing against another legitimate heavyweight champion. Fact is, every time he was tested, he ended up on his face or quitting. Buster Douglas provided the blueprint on how to beat the guy--tie him up when he's inside, punch off the break, keep him at arm's length. Ali beat power punchers like Liston, Foreman & Shavers--just don't see a fight with Tyson being much different.

Everybody's got a plan until they get punched in the mouth.

Some include biting off body parts when they realize they’re out of their league

comeback?



Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson impressively sparred with his trainer, and it made people wonder if the 53-year-old could really make a comeback.

"I didn't know what to expect," Tyson's trainer Rafael Cordeiro told ESPN's Ariel Helwani on Monday. "He hasn't hit mitts for almost 10 years. So I didn't expect to see what I saw. I saw a guy with the same speed, same power as guys 21, 22 years old."...…....

Mike Tyson has same speed, power as 21-year-olds, trainer says

The story is that the fight was verbally agreed to Wilt came in (I think to sign the fight agreement) Ali looks at him for a beat then yells, "TIIIIIMMMBBBBERRRRRR!!!!"

Wilt turn pale and turns around and leaves and that's why the fight never happened

That definitely sounds like something Ali would say. He was as witty as he was talented. Good stuff.

I think Goat boxing is illegal in most states, and don't let PETA catch you doing it.
