    Comments Thread For: Izenberg Reveals Fascinating Tidbits in 'Once There Were Giants'

    When talking about the 1980 bout between Larry Holmes and Muhammad Ali, Jerry Izenberg is quick to say, "I disgraced myself that night." Far from it.

Eventually, he had enough, and he left objectivity to the side.
