Totally. He took his balls in his hand and traveled far to win a great prize. Despite a valiant and commendable and crowd-pleasing effort, he lost a close decision to a seasoned champion. Now he goes home and some tin-pot governing body wants to add insult to injury?
Ali, if you're lurkin' or listening, come back and stay and fight here. We dig ya' You're waaaaaaaay welcome and you'll earn your fortune.
