Originally posted by A-Wolf View PostThe inference here by Frazier is that Ali should have been or was punished for what he did to Joe personally. The arrogance of Frazier's sentiment is that he believes God himself punished Ali for what he did him. Pretty incredible. Basically everyone else throughout the world thinks Ali is the greatest thing human ever last time I checked.
Ali's image is airbrushed because the real man is too complicated for mass consumption.

He's also presupposing God does not like arrogance.
Joe was outrageously arrogant himself. Ironically.

It's all fair game. Frazier can say whatever he likes about Ali because Ali felt he could say anything about Frazier. No one should feel sorry for Ali.
