          thats too funny. imo i think ali would have won had they faught in thier primes. ali was very elusive and had the speed and reach advantage. ali was able to adjust and would have found his way around the ring with tyson. i can't say i really blame ali for not going to nam. that was a ****** war. i'm not saying we shouldn't have been there, i'm saying the way we went about it was all wrong.

            it was sad to see him like that you know, that parkinsons really got to him but i think he still got that old wits he used to have, i saw him with mike tyson while mike's preparing in his locker and look at how he was making face in the background, i can't help laughing (same old ali)

              Ali has a huge heart and a fighters soul. It is so nice to see that from within he is as strong and as clever as ever. God Bless Muhammad Ali.

                but when ali out pyched the monster foreman i had to hand it to him. and ali was great enough to survive the long layoff that was imposed on him by the fckng government over the vietnam era draft. he would have been greater if his boxing carreer wasn't interupted.
                you young guys may not no this. but in the sixties the okie fay cornpones who hated blacks,mexicans, italians,and ***s hated the, what they considered the uppity, lowdmouth unamerican, draftdodging negroe cassius clay....no foolin
                That was some bull****

                Ali was in his PRIME when they took him to jail, how sad...

                Either way his the most known boxer out there so it's all good, but it leaves many fans in question of if he can beat Joe Louis or not...

                That is maybe the 1 fight that would answer the main question in HW history...

                  I believe that's called "sticking it to the man".
