    Muhammad Ali, was he ever in a street fight outside the ABC television studio, where Joe Frazier jumped on him?

      Ali did have a weakness for women, but generally avoided the bar and club scenes. Once he acquired an entourage you couldn't get anywhere near him if you were menacing.

        God i hope someone has some stories!!!
        I've read Tszyu's book and he said the only fight he had outside of the ring was against a Doctor who disrespected him and his Wife, he only hit him a few times he dropped left him with a busted up face then left the guy Lol it's funny of all the people to get into a fight with a Dr.

        Tszyu is a very classy respectful guy I knew someone who lived near him he said he was nice

And I've never seen WK as animated as he was after the fight. I expect fights between Vitali-Haye and Wladmir-Chisora before the end of this year. The brothers really want them and they'll do what it takes to get them made. Especially WK-Chisora because Vitali will be out of action and Haye is a chickenspit.

          I agree about Ward, Vitali and Wladimir all class and respectful guys

            Pacman would hammer him in a street fight though
            I agree

            he scrapped out of necessity in his youth. i'm sure there are very few fighter who never scrapped in the streets or fought as youth. i can only think of very few. i know martinez said in an interview that he was a passive kid and never fought.


            on pacquiao: like many rich/famous and powerful people i'm sure he would be very unlikely to engage in a fight. however, if you somehow got a shot on him (say a sucker punch,) i have no doubt he would smash you back with a combination before he even thought about it.


            back in the day (circa 1923,) chisora and haye would have finished their beef outside of a british pub
            Martinez I agree about, also Tua and Pacquiao have fought on the streets but they needed to it was different they are nice guys

            Just seemed like too nice of a guy.
            I read a story about him getting called out to fight by some drunk guy all Marciano said was let's just have a drink together the guy got embarrassed so yep Marciano was that nice

                rahman ofcourse was the same way but in a worse way. still he only took lewis down cuz he wasnt expecting it and he couldnt do anything to him anyways. i think lewis.. scratch that.. i KNOW lewis could handle himself in a streetfight. maybe not on the same level as mike tyson, sonny liston, george foreman etc but not far behind.
                It would take an incredibly brave and/or ****** guy to start a street fight with Lewis,however relaxed he may seem out of the ring

                  I dont think he would be a natural "Fighter" like say a Tyson or a Liston but at that size and with that amount of strength and power i sure wouldnt wanna try my chances with him!

                    He's probably the perfect height for a d1ckpunch.

                      Lol it would be one big shot then leg it as fast as i could for me! I dont think i could survive a hard glare from Sonny or Mike though
