Nobody had more 'natural' talent than Thad in the Heavyweight Division from
1964 thru 1967. 'Nose-Candy' did him in, along with cockiness.
If he only had his head screwed on right, and listened to his good friend Eddie Machen
and Manager - Willie Ketchum, he would have been a World Champion.
You forgot Muhammad Ali. By being a draft-dodging coward he gave up his prime years!
True,
That cowardice that Cassius displayed was 'self-destructive'.
But, the world needs 'Chickens' too.............
I am hardly a huge All fan. Joe Frazier was always more up my street, but there is nothing chicken like in swimming against the tide.
That is one good thing about about Bill, he can unite all the Ali non-supporters.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
