I thought this topic is about ring intelligence?

Actually, Ali had a veru high IQ and was very smart. I have read quite a few books and people always say that about Ali.

I think DLH is the smartest guy out there when it comes to former or current boxers. He has done an incredible job in managing his carreer and will be one of the most successful boxers after his career is over.

Most fighters are broke a few years after they have retired, DLH will make much more money after he has retired and could have a bigger impact on the sport as a promotor than as a boxer and that's saying a lot.

Oscar is a dumb ass when it comes to ring IQ (Trinidad, Mosley I, Mayweather, Pacquiao). And Ali didn't excel in academics, but when he was in the ring he was one of the smartest fighters of all time (ie rope a dope).
