Sufi/luciferian ****** who murdered the freedom fighter Malcolm X for his establishment lords. A degenerate, racist, spoiled worshiper of mass murderer dictators. A lesson to be learned from and not repeated.
95% of boxers don't get brain damage, Ali was the exception. STFU.
Also, Ali made "less money" because he lived in an entire different time, idiot. If Ali's career happened today, he'd have more money than Floyd would (from boxing.)
Well he did, and he got it by fighting too long, and he fought too long because fans wanted it, and he didn't have the money to quit. I don't know if your statistic is accurate, but the only way I see it being accurate is because 99.999% of them don't make it to the upper echelon and take the kind of blows that the big boys take over years. And your assumption about Ali's finances is a disprovable statement so its waste to even argue it.
Ali had great defense, he was just hit by big men. He didnt just fight back toe to toe for the fans enjoyment, he fought like that to win. Had he not done so he couldve lost. Its sad that his strive to be the best put him in this state, he might not be able to brag and boast like a champ but the man is still fighting so it shows he still has the heart of one and thats not taking away from anyone, thats just the truth.
I'm not trying to take anything from the guy, I'm saying that calling another guy a waste because he knows that this can happen and takes calculated risks to avoid it from happening is asinine.
Ali had great defense early. He got older and more stationary, and when that started to happen, he started taking damage and the rest is history. I wish he could've gotten out of the game earlier, especially before fights like Shavers and Holmes.

It isn't a disprovable statement though, the 60's and 70's were a whole different time. The worth of the dollar has went up, the boxing business as a whole has grown bigger, etc. Ali today would make a ****load more money than he did then just because the money is much better today. Same as in pretty much any other business, genius. You also have to remember PPV didn't exist back then, which would have brought in an extraordinary amount of money.
lol Oh, and George Foreman didn't make it to the top? Mike Tyson didn't? Holyfield? Lewis? Sugar Ray Leonard? Etc., etc.
