    That was truly a brutal fight in hostile conditions by 2 fighters that would not give each other an inch. They left whatever they had left in that ring, absolutely amazing fight.

    It's amazing the amount of energy hatred can produce, Joe said at the end that he was fighting on instinct.

    Good documentary.

    It really shows Ali up for being the nasty bastard that he is/was and also shows up the media for showboating people who are really quite despicable and ignoring others who are really so much better as genuine human beings.

    Ali was always a cunt, I have always been fairly convinced of that.

    But at least I am not a segregation advocating racist nutjob. Ali has always been a nasty piece of work and Frazier has always been given the wrong end of the stick.

    Those are the facts.

    Ali apologised for that nonsense about the space ship coming to save the black people. Ali went way too far with the abuse against Frazier. Other than that he was a legend.

    Ali as a person was a piece of shit. The racist dribble that spewed out of his mouth was ridiculous and the fact that people actually bought into it was even worse. He was middle class citizen who was spoiled little brat and then dropped out of high school and was groomed from a young age to become an olympic champion. Frazier on the other hand was poorer than poor a working class,blue collar person through to his core. It just showed us how stupid we are as people when we cheer for a person who can bad mouth a hard working individual like Joe Frazier and cheer for a rope bender like Ali but let us not forget that Ali can take a punch. Ridciulous. Sorry got off the beaten path,but this is the documentary in hindsight if you haven't seen it. lol.
