    Not a huge Frazier fans but I understand the argument, The Thrilla in Manila documentary made Ali look like an absolute scumbag (no offense)

      That was one of the most bias documentaries I have ever seen.

        The thing was that Holmes and Ali were sparing partners and Holmes didnt even like the joke. Even some of the Stern sidekicks booed on the poor taste of the joke to make fun of parkinsons disease by equated it with the gibberish lanuage of a baby.

          And Ali was classless every single time. For all he ment to people, he should have just been the bigger man.

            I liked it. People need to remember what a rotten bastard Ali could be.

                Ali was a racist piece of shít.

                That documentary was very one sided though, Frazier was far from an angel in that build up either.

                  Ali was the epitome of a gentleman and a sportsman.

                    Ali also called Joe Louis and Jackie Robinson "Uncle Toms".

                      He called Joe Louis an uncle tom because Joe Louis was literally getting ****ed by the man after putting work in for them, and continued putting work in for them.
