Rocky needs to be pummeled into a bloody mess before he ever wakes up and tries to win a fight. Ali will skip around the ring, making all kinds of derogetory comments about Italians and Philadelphia, and Rocky will swing and miss so much he will get tired, ask for a brisk, get reminded that's only for commercials, and eventually a sweet combination by Ali, faster than the eye can see, puts him down in the tenth!

Rocky. Ali wasn't as great as people think.
He gets hyped up because he finally toppled Foreman [a feat no one thought he could do, and even he admitted he couldn't have done it again, meanwhile Foreman came back and proved he was champ in his mid 40s, coming back and easily taking the title.] and talked a lot of shit. Other than that, some of the guys who beat him or gave him trouble were heavywieght pussies.
Rocky on the other hand, has never been koed.
lol.

You must be insane. Out of 61 fights he's lost 5. 37 fights were by KO. Ali is without a doubt was the G.O.A.T. Ali's style would eventually put down Rocky. He carried his hands at his sides, rather than the normal boxing style of carrying the hands high to defend the face. That means he relies on his reflexes ( superior to Rocky's ) and reach (80 inches also superior to Rocky's ) to keep him away from his opponents' blows. Ali punched to the head much more than most boxers—a high-risk strategy since, over the duration of a long fight, punches to the body can be much more effective in tiring an opponent out. Then it'd be Rocky's make believe ass from there. Ali is all about mind games. He'd WRECK Rocky and take Adrian back to the trailer park for some head.

He was good but mostly show like you said he used his reach and speed but his biggest weapns were his mind games. He used them to get inside people's heads and get them off their game. He did it to Foreman by basiclly wearing himout. Ali is good no doubt but he isn't unbeatable and from what I saw if people could handle the mind tricks and stay on their game they could give Ali a fight.
He was a GOOD Boxer no doubt, but not the best.. I consider Foreman the best, Foreman proved in his FORTIES that he was the next best thing to unstoppable.. Ali got him once.. but lets not ignore the facts, Ali lost to Frazier in one of the biggest, longest gruelingest matches ever..-- Foreman beats Frazier in 6 minutes. Ali lost to Norton.. Foreman beat him in the middle of round 2. Foreman was 6-1 odds against Ali. Ali got lucky, and now people call him the goat because of it.. but hey.... Foreman retired champ in his 40s, and Ali can't seem to stop shaking from too many headblows.
That was mean man Ali was GOOD and should go down as a legend in the sport. Today I think he would get mugged by some of todays competitors but back then he was great and you can't sell him short on it. He isn't the best but he is up there.
Ali would smoke Rocky Stallone or Rocky M IMO. Just a better athlete in all categories...also a role model who had to overcome social and racial issues of the time. Stallone is what???5'4? And 160lbs? That would be a serious ass-kicking.
Modern Athletes are just so far ahead of Rocky M its not even funny....I havent boxed in 8 years but considering the shape I'm in, I wouldnt hesitate to fight a sloppy chump like that for 100 bucks.
About Foreman, I agree, I think Foreman is one of the most under rated athletes of all time.
Foreman crushed Frazier and Norton, two fighters who's style gave Ali worlds of trouble. But then Foreman gets throughly schooled by Ali, who gets the belt back. What does any of this who-beats-who prove? Ultimately nothing.

The fight with Ali and Foreman went for 8 rounds, when Ali got lucky and put the big man down... like I said, it's been said by analysts and Ali himself alike, he would NEVER have been able to perform that again.
I'm not saying Ali isnt a good fighter, I'm saying he's overrated and BETTER boxers are UNDERrated.
Anyway, ali would loose to rocky.
Batman would loose to rocky.
Bruce lee would loose to rocky.
I am a fan of all these people, they are the best.
Ali of of the top 3 best boxers of all time.
Bruce lee one of the top 3 best martial-artists of all time.
Rocky is a montage feuled slow-witted one track fighting machine that won't stop..Ever!
He wins against anyone who his punches can hurt.
Against Superman, no.
Against These guys, yeah.
Rocky wins.
