    1967

    Cassius would have 'never' gotten by Thad Spencer in June 1967.

    If that bout took place at Oakland Coliseum, Thad wins by a 'close' 15-Round Decision.

    Thad was the perfect fighting machine at that time, and younger than that 'old man' called Cassius.

    Yes it is often said that Thad Spencer would have beaten Ali. Lucky Ali got exiled from boxing and Thad got beat by Quarry.

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Thad got beat by Jerry Quarry in February 1968,

    When he was not in good shape, due to 'mucho partying'.

    Roberto,

    That's Mr. Candy Slim to you.

    And did you know, that I snapped Muhammad Ali's head gear 180* around his head in a
    1969 sparring session.

    Damn had him out on his feet in a Boxing Exhibition in Charleston, South Carolina.

    Only that 'thick skull' of his prevented him from falling down at the base of my feet.

    You say thick skull, I say great chin, heart and determination.
