    Why do you keep pushing this fight, it was heartbreaking and never should have happened. Holmes was in his prime and an Ali in his prime would have had the fight of his life against Holmes, never mind this unhealthy version.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Ali weighed in at 217lbs (I think) and no one wanted him in this fight, no one!! Ali called his shots and was very sure he could get the weight off in time to train and be effective against Larry who he knew very well (ex sparring partners years ago) Well he didn't train he shadowed out alot and when he sparred he was horrible!!! It was another of those Louis vs Marciano nights that made grown men weep! The two best heavies of all time were destroyed by their own ego's. Ali thinking he still had it and Joe being shoved into the fight by his goverment for back taxes. Boxing is a tuff sport, even when your not in the ring! Ray.
