    How did Ali take those punches?

    Well,Foreman was the first and only puncher that Frazier ever stepped in the bring with.Frazier and his team spent his entire career avoiding punchers due to a lack of confidence in his chin.When you spent so long avoiding something,eventually it will come back to bite you on the backside.

            As we discovered in 2009, David Haye is too cowardly to fight a Klitschko.

                Are you a small child?

                I used to play with toy six-shooters when I was 4 years old.

                Or are you a mentally ******ed adult?

                  There are PEDs that would have helped him to take Foreman's shots.
                  He wasnt landing every power punch he threw. Did you watch the fight or did you watch the Ali movie where they made look like a worse beaten than it was? Ali was slipping alot of those punches. He was also blocking alot of those punches and countering. Foreman wasnt use to being hit like that much. He was spend from prolly round 4 on. You can see he was gased from throwing so many punches. Maybe Henry Cooper took something extra if he was so much smaller than Foreman ever think of that?

                    In hindsight, perhaps Big George should have demanded Ali have Olympic-style testing! Ali's other opponents like Frazier should have as well...

                    Without performance-enhancing substances, would Ali have been successful?
                    There has been zero proof that Ali was on any steroids so why even bring this up?
                    Vitali has been found guilty of taking steroids so it is fair to question him.
                    Incidently why not start this thread under your main Carnivore account?
