          He also said Robert Fitzsimmons was the greatest and Jim Jeffries was so powerful he didn't hit as hard as he could because he didn't want to kill people.

          Obviously boxing is just fantasy roleplaying with a whole lot of nostalgia, for him.

            Foreman even complained of feeling drowsy.

              foreman supposedly had flu and was given flu medicine by his own team before the fight, which George corroborated. if true, add to that his workrate in the heat.

              also Ali used PEDS for the Holmes fight just watch the 30 30 episode.
              thyroid pills given to him on a misdiagnosis and which didn't aid his performance in the least, but rather the opposite.

              I think Cus D Amato called Ali a bum who fought nothing but bum of the month, Cus even said he could develop a fighter to beat him.
              when Cus would take Mike up to the attic to view film of old fighters, he would pinpoint what he thought was the primary strength of each great and try to instill it in Mike. he told young Tyson that Ali's strongest quality was the character he brought into battle.

              watch a.k.a. Cassius Clay to see Cus and Ali interact. Cus' admiration is obvious.

              and now we get to the reason why you seek to discredit Ali. Ali is greater than any of those three, and it's not close.


              you are the worst type of fellow. a dishonest scoundrel.

                Funny thing is we didn't even see Ali at his highest potential, he missed out a crucial number of years and was never the same imo.

                  also, Ali's resume is a veritable who's who of two eras. it's the best HW resume qualitatively bar none.

                      Ali was anything but a bum, even if you think he was overrated.
