amazing the Impact Ali made on Boxing 55 years later

Ali is still talked about and adored decades after his last fight. Probably the most impactful character ever in boxing. Image changing his name changing his religion, joining a hated despised cult, refusing to fight for his country and defend America, sitting out 3 1/2 years of prime time and still being talked about. Now that is impressive especially since the last 25 years Ali has been a pitied shaking stricken sickly frail man in a wheel chair unable to speak coherently or function well. Amazing how Ali/Clay is still talked about as a great fighter.

His birthday is coming up next month. And no one except him, The Money Team, and the five fanboys of his who represent the only people who paid to see him win instead of lose will care.

But you know his B-Day coming up lol I'm a fan and didn't even realize that.. You must be a undercover fan or a groupie .. He probably has more fans than you have money.. Stop hating clownfish

Ali is the most influential and famous black ever in USA

Ali by far is the most famous and recognized black person ever in America. Ali has contributed more to Black America than any other ten blacks combined. Ali is still talked about with respect and reverence and is idolized by every black person. Ali's impact on American black culture and life is huge. Ali is by far the Blacks biggest hero who is idolized and respected.

In total career greatness, Muhammad Ali was suppassed immediately by Larry Holmes.

Every non-nut bag knows this..

However what even real people sometimes are not privy to, is that Ali was in fact completely inferior even in his own time!

George Foreman was by far the dominant HW of the 70's. Except because of Ali's famous victory over George we find ourselves today in dark throes of nut baggery.

Of course, most people know of the extreme circumstances involved in this match all of which penalised Geroge and benefitted Ali greatly. He of course knew he could never beat him again under ordinary circumstances and vowed never to ever rematch him, the only duck to be fair of Ali's career.

And among Ali's many gift decisions, he can be pretty much attributed 12 losses instead of his usual 5. However standing out amongst all these were his 3 lossed to Ken Norton.

Anybody who has never seen these fights should put themselves through the pain and agony of watching the bum Ali in 3 complete fights, boring as hell as they are.

After which there can be no doubt that this total clown Norton who had a resume approximately 100x weaker than Wilder's had Ali's number badly.

And after which there will never be any further excuse for having to sit through another torturously piss weak Ali fight ever again!

LOL, you trippin brah.

refusing to fight for his country and defend America

Ummm, defend America from what? You still buying the cold-war koolaid?

Ali disgraced himself by not fighting for his country when called up to serve. Most of America hated Ali for refusing to defend America. Ali should have been exiled and thrown out of America. But being banned for 3 1/2 years of prime time fights was pretty good punishment along with the millions spent on legal costs and the hatred that follwed Ali to this day.

That is correct.

Happy Birthday Champ!
