One of Ali’s greatest strengths was his endurance. Rope-a-dope was a mental game
he used when he was an older fighter to not only wear out younger stronger punchers, but also to add to his already legendary endurance.
In his prime Ali didn’t use the rope-a-dope, his body movement and speed made it extremely difficult for opponents to connect with him on solid punches.
If Tyson would have fought Ali in his prime he would have been going up against a fighter with speed that he had never before experienced in the ring.
