Shades of Ali-Foreman in Zaire. Ultimate neutral place if there ever was one. Although Ali and Foreman were both Americans, any venue in the States would've probably leaned one way or the other depending on where the fight was held. So Ali and Foreman went to frigging Zaire to fight. Now Ruiz and Joshua will get it on in Saudi Arabia. At least in Zaire the crowd was excited and acted as such. Still don't know about the excitement level in Saudi Arabia, not exactly a hotbed for sports.![]()
