Oh and I think Louis was on drugs when he wrote that Marciano would have given Ali a hard time
Yes, Joe sounds like those old athletes that always think the guys of their era would dominate the modern guys. Jersey Joe Walcott would beat Ali?? Max Schmeling? GTFO.
I think Joe ranks #2 or #3 all time among heavyweights, but Ali is the clear #1. Joe gave this interview before we knew that Ali had the greatest chin and heart in the history of the heavyweight division because he had never been hit at that point.

The older guys were so dismissive of Ali because of his mouth and his careless hand placement but Ali was playing chess in the ring. He maneuvered opponents out of their fight plan before the bell ever rang.
