it has to be said back then the climate was much different than today. ali was the black "militant" ****** and frazier was embraced by white america kinda like a stepchild because their hate for ali burned deep. so ali attacked him for being the chosen representative for white america. towards the end of both their lives they forgave each other. ali said it was promotion. frazier was hurt for years but eventually let it go.Comment

I think your timing is a bit off, Ali was a fan favorite once his suspension was lifted, he was a counter culture icon.

It was Floyd Patterson that had the issues with the black ******s, and was considered to be “the white mans champ”Last edited by _Rexy_; 01-18-2018, 12:30 PM.Comment

Ive heard him say stuff like that but wonder if he REALLY went that far.But Joe NEVER did forgive Ali and I cant blame him.I mean to call Joe a "white man in a black body"is pretty out there when you consider Joe had lived the black experience MUCH more then Ali.He started out son of a sharecropper in deep south then moved to the Philly getto while Ali lived middle class at least for a black man at that time.You can bet Joe NEVER had a new bike to get stolen.http://www.chicagonow.com/offhanded-...t-of-the-ring/
