ali of the sixties and his feuds with former champs

[billeau2]

Ali was taking diuretics to lose a lot of weight in a short period of time for the Holmes fight. According to members of his team it nearly killed him.

Ali went from around 260 to 217 during his training camp.

Damn!! those things are more dangerous than many illicit substances.

It may not be incorrect he may have been on dietertic which caused him to look good as far as weight but we're strength sapping it is a fight that should have never taken place.

Yeah I agree with that. Ali was so damn tough. He's one of those guys that were too tough for their own good.

I can remember seeing him take his rope off and the crowd at the New Haven Coloseum was in amazement then everyone got very quite because they knew he couldn't be in that condition just from training. The announced weight of 217lbs really worried everyone in the building.
I walked out after 4 rounds, he had nothing to offer and Holmes was afraid to follow up once he realized Ali was an empty shell.
He looked incredible and it reminded everybody that Ali at 212--220lbs was the best looking heavy of all time but his time had past him bye.
He was one tough S.O.B he wouldn't go down and wouldn't quit.

My days in this section are numbered. I fear if I continue as I have been, I will be removed from this section or worse permanently banned

Ali was the fastest heavy of all times with the greatest will to win. A formidable combination for any heavy that every put on a set of gloves

Unfortunately, the halfwit is back. The best thing anyone can do is completely ignore this trash. Do not even write "about" his posts, let alone reply to them. You will be sorry otherwise. How would you like to be reading his garbage everyday? Well some of us have. Take it from those who know this piece of mindless swill.
