Guest Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I would like to have seen Muslamid Ali dropped like a fukken rock. I mean smashed hard, and knocked out cold. Something like a Mike Tyson hook when Tyson was like 20 years old. A basic jaw breaker. Shut Cassius's fukken mouth up for once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Member BOHICA Posted June 28, 2019 Gold Member Share Posted June 28, 2019 With todays athletes, talent of yesteryear would be minor/amateur league at best. Ali was good for his time but definitely not on the level of today’s pros. Not saying that those athletes of the past could elevate to today’s levels though. But their best back then doesn’t compare to the best now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
