They are in order.
1. The Queen mother
2. Henry Cooper
3. Bobby Charlton ( soccer player in the 60's)

I imagine it must be a bit like that over there with Ali, but a great laugh anyway seeing the thread and the reaction. lmao
CoolClick, Freddie you might not have a lot of posts but that was a pretty good comparison. You would think I insulted the Pope or some religious figure, maybe even someone's mother but nah I was just wanting Ali to be viewed the same as every other boxer. He's a fighter, yeah he was very good, but he also bent the rules, as did other all-time greats. Don't look at his political stance, his religion, his attitude, his flamboyance, just his boxing, boxing style, and his wins and losses.

And I got like 20 sad clicks for it, oh well, little babies find someone they can't agree with or that won't bend to make everyone happy and it pisses them off.
