I think that Muhammad Ali is the greatest heavyweight fighter in history. Arguably the greatest fighter in the history of boxing.
But is that position unassailable? Is that position as number one cast in stone? Is it possible for another fighter to assume that mantle, or will The Greatest be the greatest permanently?
We all know that Ali fought in the greatest era of heavys in the history of the sport, and beat all those great fighters, but does that necessarily mean that another fighter cannot meet a different set of criteria and assume the title of the 'Greatest'?
Let's face facts, as great as Ali is, he's still just a man, not the Holy Grail of sport.
