Facing ali

[walrus]

Anyone who says Ali is not the greatest heavyweight of all time for what he achieved, who he fought and when he did it knows nothing about boxing. No one comes close. He is an amazing man and boxer. Absolutely foolish to say otherwise. Just madness.

I hear you master. Ali was an amazing man. It was terrible watching some of his comeback fights. He looked ill in the ring prior to the fight and worse during the fight. He did amazing things for boxing, was a real dick to Frazier but an incredible boxer. Still, I don't think he is the greatest heavyweight of all time. He is certainly one of the greatest but I can't see the greatest. Like a number of us here he was before my time. I was surprised to see some of his dirty tactics but that was probably a bigger part of the game back then, not that we don't see it now. He certainly put on some of the greatest fights in boxing history. Just the Frazier fights and Foreman cement his name as a great.

That Liston fight that Liston threw was also amazing to see. Is it known if Ali knew that was going on prior to the fight, damn that was bad. Think I'm going to YouTube it this eve.

PS props to my boy @Bill Paxtom for staying out of this thread, his fingers must be burning.
