    Fun Fact

    Watching Tyson knock out Holmes?
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Tyson would have done the same shit to a post-1971 Ali IMO.

    Agreed Post: not pre.

    "I never thought that I'd see the day that Muhammad Ali would 'quit' on his stool. He's got
    some Dog in him like everybody else."

    "At least Floyd Patterson went down on his shield. Muhammad hid behind Angelo Dundee
    and Bundini Brown. I lost respect for him for doing that."

    Larry Holmes between Round 8 and 9 of the Ali fight: "don't give me any water, Richie. I want to take this clown out to the Deep Blue Sea and drown him. Look at his stupid moustache."

    Larry Holmes

    "I remember during my fight against Ali. I could tell Ali wasn't in very good shape and should have never gone into the ring with me. I didn't want to keep hitting him.... but there was this very distracting, nerdy fan at ringside who kept yelling at me to keep hitting Ali.... to inflict brain damage. It was all very disturbing. He was a pasty white guy with thick glasses and a pocket protector. Once I glanced at him and he was practically frothing at the mouth."

    "In between rounds he actually went over to my corner and muttered something about Ali having stolen his girlfriend and put her on all fours... making her moan like a bitch in heat. That's when it dawned on me that... hey... this guy must really hate Ali. Don't know what his name was... but some guys nearby were shouting at him something like: Billy.... sit the fuck down!! So I went back out there and continued beating on Ali. Not something I wanted to do... but this Billy dude kept egging me on."
