Muhammad Ali vs Lennox Lewis
Who wins in this fight? I think the 1960's version of Ali beats him. The 1970's version likely lost via decision..

Prime Ali would wreck prime Lenox, outside of their primes who knows. Lenox had one of the greatest and most powerful stiff arm jabs in boxing history, but Ali was a much better all around fighter and more athletic than Lenox.

Ali was not really unbeatable. He lost to Joe Frazier in their first fight. Lost to Leon Spinks and Ken Norton Sr. Some people said he lost his 3rd fight against Norton, but the judges gave the decision to him

And Ali also lost the fight against Jimmy Young. The crowd booed Ali. Ali won by decision with the three judges voting for him.
In the stats department, Young landed 222 punches to Ali's 113. Young outlanded Ali 65–27 in jabs and 187–86 in power punches. The punch disparity highlighted the booing at the judges decisions. Compubox points out that Young landed 41.1 percent while Ali only 18.9 percent of the shots. Ali's 113 punches we're the lowest Ali ever had in a 15-round bout.[1][2][3][4

Lennox lost to Rahman and Mccall but he also avenged both of his losses. Prime Lennox under Emmanuel Steward was a complete fighter.

Styles makes fight. Norton was KO'ed by Shavers and Foreman and both guys were defeated by Ali.

Re: Muhammad Ali vs Lennox Lewis
Lennox with Emanuel Stewart vs Pre suspension Ali would be a 50-50 fight. 2 top 5 heavyweights of all time. Would have been amazing, one for the history books.
