How Good ACTUALLY Is Muhammad Ali's Grandson?

- Опубликовано: 30 июл 2024
- Muhammad Ali's grandson Nico Ali Walsh has recently made headlines through his refusal to fight Jake Paul and focus on legitimate boxing. This has raised the question of just how good is Nico Ali Walsh, to answer this we look at his resume and style while also looking towards his future.
Just a quick correction. Stuffed up talking about weights, been watching too much super middle lol and accidentally said what Jake Paul usually fights at instead of actually cruiserweight limit. Middle is 160lb and cruiser is 200lb. My bad, appreciate you all watching ❤️
It must be a nightmare to be Ali's grandson while trying to make it in boxing. It can't even imagine the pressure he must feel
So you’re disrespecting Muhammad Ali?
@@chriswatkins539 can't you read?
@@hulkman245 of course your gonna be rude when I was asking a question
@@chriswatkins539what do you expect when you're throwing accusations like that around, you got a bad case of glass house syndrome
@@RUclipsboxingvoice what?
Honestly, I think Nico is being pressured all because he's Ali's grandson. He shouldn't be, he should be who he is and slowly grow without any complaints whatsoever. He has potential, but the promotion and his name is making Nico look like a bum when he is just starting his career, as well as not yet fighting big names.
He should stop using his grandpa's name then. He's Nico Walsh
@@aashishsharma9106It’s literally his name? What a sad comment
So you’re disresping Muhammad Ali?
@@chriswatkins539 of course not. I highly appreciated and respected Muhammad Ali and all that he's done in boxing. Nico should just be himself instead of being in someone's shadow
@@bjuganda7758 oh it sounded like you were disrespecting the 3 time boxing champion
First line caught me off guard, he was never touted as the new Ali. He said that he wants to succeed because of his fighting and not because of his grandpa
Nico right now he is a very good journeymen. He is not a fraud by any means. There is nothing wrong with boxing as a journeymen. He doesn’t claim greatness or anything. He just boxes because he enjoys it. I think he’s pretty good and would love to see him continue fighting journeymen until he’s ready for the top contenders.
Plus who knows, his son MIGHT be the Ali we know. So stupid to pressure the dude, like we can assume he MIGHT be as good or nearly as good but we shouldn't pressure him to live up to it.
@@pleasedont7439 exactly. Let him fight and live how he wants. Lets give him credit for doing what we cannot.
The guy called out jake paul. That says all you need to know right there
He called Jake Paul out on his bs with fighting middleweights, you think Ali would stoop so low to fight a RUclipsr when he already has a name to live up to
I feel for Walsh in a way, he’s definitely not a fraud he just is standing in the shadow of Grandfather which are shoes he’ll likely never fill. It’s a shame, they should’ve just marketed him and kept his family heritage on the down low until he potentially made it to the elite class of boxers.
Bred the black right outta that bloodline lol
I’m a actual boxing fan
Ali Walsh not bad! The dude had around 25 to 30 fights in the amateurs!
He basically new
He fighting guys who got way more experience than him!
I’m surprised he was not exposed him even going this long is surprising he’s fighting better fighters then some fights like Fernando Vargas sons!
They all looking good tho
But who been doing very well is
Tsyu brothers for sure!
Then after his shoulder was dislocated during his fight & he keep goin! Shows he more than just a gimmick he’s A real deal boxer!
Nothing but facts bro, thanks for taking the time to comment!
@@CloisterYT no problem you got a good channel it will grow for sure!
Trust me! Just stay real have a open mind & always check the truth 🫡
If you ever love i would to talk some boxing with you
This feels like a repeat of Marvis Frazier, where the son is pushed way too quickly so promoters can get a big money fight out of them.
He is decent, problem is he got a lot of pressure to a showy boxer which he should be doing until 20th fight
nico ali walsh vs carlos takem
People are just too rude to him without any good reason, in any fight of him, the comments are awful. It's too soon to say he is bad or good, he needs more fights to say that in my opinion.
He is doing a good effort because money is no need for him, so I think he is going for the glory and belts probably.
Absolute class video mate
Thanks mate!
Goat
Great video again brother
Thank you brother
The Fact that he said no to a Jake Paul fight shows that he's serious about this sport.
I made a video about this same topic after his fight but I never got to finish😢 anyway good video
hasim rahman jr. would of beat jake paul's ass. jake paul knows who to fight and who not to fight.
fighting old athletes wont get you far, fight good competition if you wanna be taken seriously.
cant hate jake paul, he is in it for the bag and nothing else..
Uh, probably the best answer is We don't know yet, there'll be people who mention him purely because he's Alis grandson and then people will get bigger saying he's living off his grandfather's name, like when they compare Dennis McCann to Naseem Hamed because he's a tricky southpaw, then they were the first to call him "exposed" when he dared to look human in a step up fight
BoMac needs to pick him up. He got that Midas touch.
Facts even turned Chris Eubank jr around
I personally know sona akale. most of us thought nico was gifted the second fight lol
Hello mate i really want to edit your videos at high level mate.
It's easy to be a critic...critics aren't taking the punches.
I like and respect his come up he let's it be known he's Ali's grandson but not boastfully he's making his own name what can I say
Damn, you made me remember existed
dude has grit, and a bit of caginess to him..hes obviously not the most talented I have seen but when i saw him boxing with his dislocated shoulder and kind of hiding it by pounding his arms as if hes pounding his chest..hes definitely tough.. I can still see him possibly reach top ten contention if he keeps up the grind but I am a bit worried about his shoulder health now
I'm currently constructing an idea for a boxing game, better than fight night and I give Nico ali Walsh a rating of a 77-79ovr, if he proves himself I'll boost the rating, I also got pun characters like Jake Paul at a 71ovr

Dudes a nobody tryna live off grandpas name. He knows jake would flatline him and ruin the Ali name. Why else would he deny the biggest payday and exposure of his life to keep fighting other nobodies like him.
because even if he wins, he would get clowned by being an Ali and fighting a youtuber thats far worse for his name than losing to somebody thats actually a boxer, just by even putting jake pauls name to the mix is disrespect to his grandfathers legacy
@@KingEarlexactly op just doesn’t get it
You're a casual Jake gets stopped
To be honest watching his fights if he doesn't drastically improve then I can never see him becoming a champion and so far he is a slightly below average boxer and isn't anything special.
For someone who barely fought at all before going pro, i'd say he's properly REALLY mid but not THAT bad..of course he's not close to his grandfather's stratosphere (or even the B level guys of his division), but he's actually quite aight for someone being pushed to the pro ranks this quickly (still needs a WHOLE LOT of training if he wants to stand against even the fringe contenders tho)
Straight facts, good take! Appreciate you tuning in
People are doubting NAW for refusing a fight with a clown is indicative of how many people are also clowns. That said, him being the grandson of the legendary Muhammad Ali means that he shouldn't be rushed or glazed for that but he should be step out of his shadows and become his own man at his own pace.
Nico Ali Walsh wants to succeed by his fighting not by his grandpa's legacy,let him cook guys,he needs a better defense currently,and i'm sure he'll be a nice champ too,he may not be like Ali,but it's acceptable alot,since no relatives of someone can replicate their style,even his grandson.
His bloodline got tainted. He could never be as good as the legend
Chill with racism fam.
@JaceRivera-t2w not really when all the top athletes are.. you know.. but there's monster out there like nick ball
@@xrojas13 number one p4p is a slav from the Ukraine, number is 2 is Japanese number p4p in UFC is arguably a Brazilian of native heritage
@@JaceRivera-t2w fr dude, when it's about top athletes race stops to matter totally because that kind of people came in all type of shapes, sizes, and even race (also cuz most of them are genetic freaks of their own without race being a heavy factor to it at all)
@@xrojas13when furries believe in eugenics lmaoooo how cringey can you be
He’s not something special unfortunately. I’ve seen his fights and there is no flair ,no style ,no pop no nothing there. The only reason he’s even signed to toprank is because of his grandfather. Which yes makes him more interesting but non the less I don’t see it in him to best the top contenders.
But all the best to him
58-55 in favor of Nico is insanity I don’t get how one of the judges saw it that way considering Nico only had one good round and another round that was questionable other then that sona clearly outboxed him in every other round. According to stats sona threw less punches and landed more so that says something.
Didn't even know he had one 😂
Sorry but Muhammad Ali didn’t have tatoos or didn’t look like or have this hairstyle, this guy looks completely different.
Fun fact. Bob arum used to work for Ali, Ali started top rank to generate money for the black community. Arum took over the company some how and claims “top rank was not set up to promote black fighters” now he got Ali offspring fighting for him
Nico is a decent boxer. Now if you're trying to compare nico to his grandfather there is a stark difference. It would have been awesome to see what nico could have become if he started boxing sooner he could have beem a legit marvel, but its ok he's not like his grandfather those shouldnt be the shoes that he fills hes boxing because he enjoys it and thats why he's great.
Irish Mickey Walsh is tough decent a fighter
This could be bias Becuase I know Slink personally we train together Nico really didn’t win that second fight he lost both of em tbh and why isn’t he goin for the trilogy
I feel like people underestimate the value of 30 amateur fights.
Yes a short and low key run isn't impressive but a great number of professionals don't even have that many fights total.
He's seasoned, but he's mediocre. I don't believe he'd survive elite opposition, but I think he'd molest Jake Paul.
If they get him a minor title, he'll be fine; but don't put him near the top five.
There's no need to cash him out either, have him defend his minor title against Jake Paul.
Nico should win, keep the party going with low level freakshow defences paid for by the inflated attention from the Paul fight.
Have him "retire" undefeated, the fans will start legitimising his legacy; the more self aware fans will be furious. As the controversy peaks rematch Jake Paul. Could literally make hundreds of millions with fuck all effort lmaoooooo
I'd compare someone like nico walsh to bronny james, humble, got heart, a chin....but is just not capable of surviving the 160 pound division, and is pressured to be good hes someones grandson, or for bronny james case? The son of lebron. this isnt like a skilled 23 year old ryan garcia rebuilding his career after making 30mil fighting an elite fighter. Nico walsh is an unexperienced young boxer in a division of elite prospects like sheeraz or troy isley. boogeymen like Zhanibek Alimkhanuly. The kids going to have a tough time rebuilding his career if he losses against high risk low reward fighters which is practically the 160 pound division
Nico's not a fraud, he's a fun average fighter. Not on the top level (and I think he will never reach this point), but a real boxer. That's it, nobody's hyping him btw
bro saying fraud like that guy is sukuna or smth
This kid is trading on his grand father’s name.
So Bronny James and Nico Ali Walsh walk into a bar……
If he had the exact skill set of Muhammad Ali I don’t think he’d do well, that big of a generational and divisional skill gap is just too much.
This guy is obviously a casual
He’s a decent boxer get over it lil bro
I never said he wasn't
he got cruiser weight range wrong , mans said “185lbs” 😂. I’m sure he isn’t a supreme casual but that was bad to not know
Yeah screwed up the weights lol been watching too much super middle and I think I was thinking about Jake Paul’s usual weight and that he now fights at cruiserweight. Got the two mixed when writing the script. My bad
Why isn't he a heavyweight?
Damn. He turned Ali's bloodline white. Ali would hate that.
nico walsh isnt that good.
The butterfly tattoo on the armpit upsets me for some reason
Dosent he have like 20 amateur fights or less
Pretty sure he has about 30 bouts

Jake Paul might give him the biggest payday of his life, maybe more than all his future paydays combined. He belongs in the average tier and struggles with it, I doubt Nico has what it takes to be a world champion.
He lost that fight against sona again. Even before the knockdown in that round he was getting whooped I gave him maybe 2 rounds max and also he almost got finished the round he almost got finished shouldve been a 10-8 round too. I think sona won and whoever scored it 58-55 please never score a fight again and hop off the crack.
He definitely has potential. He’s no Muhammad Ali and I don’t think he should be. Hopefully the pressure of being Ali’s grandson doesn’t get to him.
Just like Jake Paul to want fight someone who is almost 50 lbs smaller than him. Just trying to live off of other peoples names.
I don’t know why people expect the descendants of someone great to also be great. This is not how genetics work. 🤦♂️ There is only a small chance he got all the genetic benefits that Ali did and it’s incredibly unlikely he will ever have the same experiences that shaped Ali’s mind. 🤦♂️
Being a part of someone’s lineage, even directly, does not mean you will be good at what they are good at or have the same skill ceiling. 🤦♂️
Turning down Jake Paul got my respect
I dont think it matters. Just let him fight he clearly enjoys it i dont see the need for him to become the greatest or even make a name for himself. His grandfather already did that to an extent that eclipses any legacy he could even build he should know that better than everyone.
Man should’ve taken the Jake Paul fight he’ll never be a world champion
At least not a legitimate one
I have respect for him doing that because he is focused on boxing
Nah, paul is 3 weight classes above him, with one of the biggest weight gaps in the sports appearing between those being one of the largest gaps being light heavyweight (78) and cruiserweight (90) and fighting him would destroy any chance of a championship ,plus he's only got 1 loss and 10 wins early on and is a very skilled boxer, especially considering how young he is, he 100% can become a champion, taking the fight with paul would be dumb
Fighting jake paul kills your credibility in the boxing world man, everyone knows he just hand picks fights where he can make the most money and make himself look good
He has a Welsh surname ffs
He's nothing special if he even tries to step his competition up even a tiny bit he's going to get hurt badly. Scraping by Akale both times is tough work for him already, he should stick to the level he's at until he gets better because even Jake Paul would give him a tough fight and that sounds bad but it's just the truth.
Middleweight is not 165 pounds. This guy doesn’t know what he’s talking about 😂
Been watching too much super middle lol, messed up when writing the script. My bad, good catch bro
@@CloisterYT he’s been watching too much idc
Do you know what fraud means...prat...
Fraud wtf 😂 the man is a professional boxer i wonder why people throw that term so lossly. Klay Thompson is a fraud 😂
I'm not watching this video I don't have time for this bull but I will say this ESPN and top rank tried to fool people about this guy but he is not good.
his mother should be ashamed smh sellout.
Yea he is overated. His skills are like most average boxers in the game. For example. Bam rodriguez is 24 and if you see him fight, his skills alone shows you is going to be an elite p4p fighter. All the hype for this ali grandson is ridiculous.
Bam is already p4p top 10 and outliers dont make norms. I agree with your assessment, but comparing guys to Bam, whos finishing very good fighters, is odd.
@@waternotwater5562 What I was trying to say is the video is about ali and asked if he’s overated. I mentioned bam because his skill alone in the eye of everyone shows he is elite. Ali on the other hand in the eye of the person, his skills are obvious of an average fighter. The guy who asked the vid already had answer before making the video.
He's a Klingon, right?
He’s not good at all
He's a bum, a class D or C tops fighter
I agree 100% he is a fraud
Nico a bum he should have took that paul fight
Yous a bum that never fought a day in his life
2/10 ragebait
@@haiwanbumi it's not bait? I don't think he's good he's going to close decisions with top rank cans you're supposed to blow these guys out with ease
@@yoskiUCy_TfipEEJ9fagain kid only had 30 amauter fights let him work when he gets to 20 pro fights and still hasn’t gotten to it then you go and say that but he picked up boxing late so its gonna take time you just seen what happen to frank martin
@@juanclaudio3348 I know but I'm not Baiting I think at this stage of his career he's a bum and he probably should've took that paul fight
he’s not that good
Nothing like stepping on others for your own gain. Your charachter shows in this kind of junk content. I agree he is no phenom, but let him be, he just wants to box. He's got more courage than you got behind your keyboard crapping on him. Shame
I said he’s a decent boxer who probably will have a good career if he follows the top rank road and improves upon his weaknesses lol, no stepping on others bro
@@CloisterYT lol, the cover image says fraud with an arrow. If that's not stepping on him then you are more delusional than rude.... But still rude and a lowlife
@@CloisterYT lol, your image is big letters "fraud" pointing towards him. You are delusional if you don't think that's stepping on somebody for click bait. You are a lowlife.
chill
i think he is trash
He is going to have an Antony Jousha type career
Not at all. Anthony Joshua was Mike Tyson 2.0 until he met Andy Ruiz. Aj is peak heavyweight conditioning. Top 3 heavy weight of the last 10 years.
Nico is a very good journeymen.
