Sugar Ray Robinson or Muhammad Ali?

Question

Sugar Ray Robinson or Muhammad Ali?

Answer 1

Well, since there's a lack of detail in the question and I don't know exactly what you're asking, I'll come up with different answers to possibly detailed questions.

- Who is better pound-for-pound all-time? Personally, I would say Robinson.

- Who would win head-to-head? Ali due to a huge natural size advantage. Despite Robinson making it up to middleweight, his best moments were at welterweight and Ali as we all know is a natural heavyweight.

- Who is simply my favorite between the two? It's a very tough one, but I'm leaning 51/49 towards Ali... that's how tough the call is for me.

Answer 2

The biggest thing we are missing thought is Ali in his prime. Right when he was supossed to be drafted into Vietnam and refused. It stole years from his career where we will never know how great he was.

Not taking anything away from Robinson who was a h**l of a fighter and one of the greats but Ali was also a mental fighter as well in and out of the ring.

Ali in his prime vs. Robinson in his prime.

That's a tough one.  

Answer 3

I would go for Sugar Ray Robinson, because I like the way he fight.

Answer 4

Pound for pound Robinson is the better fighter.  Robinson at one time in his career was 128-1-2, finishing 58-18-4 over his last 80 fights.  Ali was 56-5 for his whole career.  Robinson fought into his forties, Ali for all talent is concerned was done at 36.
