its tied at 3-3. i think that you could make a good argument for either fighter in this. you could argue that someone like henry cooper could get to ali and land a left hook that almost put him out and louis is a great finisher. also that norton could time his jab and get off his jab first.
you could also argue that conn outboxed louis and ali was bigger and better than conn and wouldnt have gotten stupid and the end and just won a decision.
im fine with either answer although i think that ali can outbox louis. i just dont think that louis was the right style to beat ali. he was a boxer puncher that could throw great combinations on the inside and could keep his distance with his jab if he wanted. ali just had a great chin and a ton of heart. his stamina was also great. i think that it would be close but ali pulls out a decisive victory.
