Yes, of course, it's all hypothetical. and I believe those interview with Bruce Lee was at the height of his popularity and he was probably being regarded as the best fighter in the world and hence the comparison. And yet without any hesitation he just said Ali will kill him so just showing his respects for the great man.

Personally, I would think that if you put Ali and Bruce in a boxing ring with rules and gloves, Ali will win in the first round probably by KO, but if you put them in the UFC cage and no rules ! then the result could be different. So yes, I agree with you on this one. Again.............haha !!
