Yes Walrus... Bill was a Vietnam vet. He went to all the shows, and snapped all those pictures himself. He had made a special place in his little scrapbook for the Ali photos he was going to put there when The Greatest showed up and did a little shadowboxing for the troops. Unfortunately, Ali refused to be drafted, and Billy's scrapbook pages reserved for Ali went empty. Billy's heart was broken... but the sadness soon turned to anger. Once Billy returned to the States, he went to all of Ali's fights... but only to BOO and call Ali by his slave name. Before being hauled off by Ali's bodyguards, Billy swore to Ali that if there was ever something invented called the Internet, and if in that Internet there was ever something called a Boxing Forum..... that Billy would join and forever maintain a hate crusade the likes of which the world had never seen.
The rest, as they say..... is history.
