Ok this is heresy but was Ali actually a total knob?

Regarding Ali there is no doubt that he could be a gigantic prick, & the way he treated Frazier particularly was sickening, although it is part of a wider issue regarding skin tone & post-colonial inferences in the black community, however, that's not really an issue for the main board.

That at one point was a huge issue. I don't know so much now, but the funny thing is Ali had it reversed. Kind of like Kennedy calling Nixon a pussy when it came to war.
