    Bill, you only see the worst in Ali, so there is no talking to you.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    You shouldn't let your eyes be clouded by one man's Boxing Talent and Entertainment Value.

    How much do you really know about Muhammad Ali.

    Just what you read, which was by someone else's opinion. Or what you saw on Television.

    That's not knowing anything in 'real' depth.

    Unless you knew him personally, you do not know him better than anyone else.

    A close family member {Uncle} of mine worked with Cassius Clay.
    We know a lot.

    Ali was introduced to Black Muslims long before the draft.

    Question 1 ......... Yes ........ Many times.
    Question 2 ......... Yes ........ Several times.
    Question 3 ......... No room ever went silent.

    Muhammad Ali was no Joe DiMaggio.

    Went 'Joltin Joe' arrived in a room, everyone was 'awestruck'.

    There was a big difference between 'a class act' in a gentleman as {Joe DiMaggio},
    and an 'entertainer' as in Cassius Clay.

    Ali will be long remembered. He is an iconic legend that transcended boxing, sport and entertainment. There are reasons why he is a living legend written about long past his pro career.

    Why are you trying to debate with him about Muhammad Ali? For all the sense you will get, you may as well debate Islam with a guy from ISIS!
    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    I am hoping Bill will forget the day Ali did not sign his autograph and left him unhappy, bitter and twisted full on vengeful hate and bile.
