    You list any of these tragedies:

    I can explain it.
    But I cant understand it for you.

    Mayweather and Pacquiao blowing the opportunity to fight each other in their primes.

    To elaborate, the moment is lost. From about the time PacMan defeated ODLH to approximately when he first faced Timothy Bradley, we had something really special on our hands: 2 all-time greats in the same weight division and at the red-hot primes of their careers. This never happened.

    It's as if we are going straight to Leonard-Hearns II without having a I. Alternatively, if one views PBF as still in his red-hot prime (a reasonable opinion, but not one I hold) we have something closer to Tyson-Holmes. I mean, 2 red hot prime fighters in the same weight class and at this skill level is something very rare. Even Leonard-Duran doesn't quite qualify (Duran peaked at Lightweight). Ali-Frazier probably does, but even then we could quibble about Ali (he peaked before his Vietnam controversy).

    I'll watch the fight of course, but I'm terribly disappointed.

    Muhammad Ali

    September 1980

    During a filmed gym session for a Press Release, Muhammad was trying to hit the Speed Bag.

    Muhammad couldn't even get a good 10-Seconds off, before forgetting how to punch the Bag.

    Embarrassing Moment #67 for Muhammad Ali

    Steve Smoger getting into the Hall of Fame. Might as well let the Marquis de Sade in.

    Bill I normally do not agree with you and I will not start now.

    That album was great. Sam Cooke would have been proud of that album.

    General Information

    That Album was Produced by > Gary Belkin {a white guy}.

    And the Musicians were 'all white'.

    The Album was recorded at Columbia Studio's on 30th Street in New York City, New York.

    The Album 'I Am The Greatest' was a brain-child of the William Morris Agency {a bunch of white guys}.

    Cassius Clay said he wanted the best, and only the best Music People.

    So some white people can make music. What is the point?

    Cassius Clay

    Proved his 'true' worth, by having only white musicians play on the Album
    'I Am The Greatest', and produced by a 'very white' Gary Belkin.

    And copying black musician's songs.

    Nothing like Cassius showing his true colors.................
