Yeah, Big George got a second chance at fame and really took advantage of it. I'm only 36 so i only know Foreman has the happy nice guy but I hear he was a mean sob before.

Didnt frazier once say fuck ali and and that at the end he won the battle and war because he wasnt the one braindead with parkensons

Simply the GOAT.
Stood for more outside the ring than any other athlete in any other sport
-

yes he did frazier hated that piece of shit
ali said alot of low things about frazier back in the 70's

PiP Ali
Was he really a muslium ? Or just did it because he wanted to follow malcolm X ???

Ali, in his fight against George Foreman was greatness personified.

Yeah,it was said Ali suffered from fatigue and tiredness and short term memory loss,along with the more obvious motor deficits.

fedrol here is the thing i have watched the sport for a long time
ali took a ton of beatings in the 70's even most of the fights he wont he took a beating alot of them were close decisions to
the guy really wasnt that smart. lived the past 30 years as a immobile vegetable and was broke till he sold the rights to his name.
but people kiss his ass as some genius, foreman and holmes were much smarter and did better with there money and lives than ali
holmes actually ran businesses ali never did. ali got divorced like 4 times.
but the media portrays ali as some all great saint, formean and holmes did much better after boxing than ali did.
-
-
also here is a link for were ali sold his name
he was a broke ass punch drunk champ who had to do this cause he was broke
foreman and holmes were much more savy than ali, but they didnt have the media and public kissing there ass as some kind of saint to humanity

That's a great shot. Foreman looks uber cool there.

Its refreshing to see muslims travel to afterlife solo. They generally take a few folks with them.
-
PiP Ali
Was he really a muslium ? Or just did it because he wanted to be like malcolm X ???
He became a Muslim via the Nation of Islam but later left the group and embraced Sufism - a more mystical, liberal and spiritual form of Islam that itself, isn't particular mainstream.
-
Didnt frazier once say fuck ali and and that at the end he won the battle and war because he wasnt the one braindead with parkensons
He wasn't that blunt about it, but yes he did. If pushed he'd admit that he was happy, and thought that it was his beatings helped Ali get to where he was at, and in that sense he was the winner.
They were friendly before those fights, and Ali was an absolute asshole to him during, and a bit after. Also given the fact that it happened during a time in the prime Civil Rights era was extra hurtful to Frazier. Ali's "Gorilla" speeches were one of the big straws that helped break the camel's back -
.
1:25 - onward.
Anyway, RIP to Ali. Whatever is to be said about him, he was an interesting man in an interesting era.

RIP

The thrilla in manilla doc is fantastic, and maybe one of the best documentaries of all time. I'm definitely more of a Frazier fan, as Ali was a bit of an asshole human being imo. I do believe Ali apologized later in life for how he acted towards Joe, but you gotta wonder how much of being a weak cripple was a factor in that humility. Still, one of the greatest athletes of all time.
-
I didn't realize it was up on Youtube, if anyone wants to see a good documentary on the crux of the Ali - Frazier feud, this one is fantastic -

George Foreman on Ali’s death: ‘Part of me just passed with him’
One of Muhammad Ali’s most memorable victories came at the expense of Foreman, but the “Rumble in the Jungle” rivals later became good friends.
By Gabe Hiatt
Like Sonny Liston and Joe Frazier before him, George Foreman had no choice but to play the part. Here was Muhammad Ali at the peak of his rhetorical powers casting Foreman as the ugly American, a sell-out, a big, dumb ox to be dispatched by the greatest of all time.
On October 29, 1974, Foreman played the heavy. The fight was called “The Rumble in the Jungle,” and it was bigger than Don King’s hair. Ali, 32, knocked out the 25-year-old Foreman in the eighth round to reclaim the heavyweight championship title in Kinshasa, Zaire. Ali’s strategy of absorbing Foreman’s blows until the young champion was spent has become legend.
After a career in which he was perhaps the most formidable of Ali’s foes, Foreman shared his thoughts on Ali with KRIV Sports Director Mark Berman late Friday night after reports confirmed the icon’s death.
“As far as George Foreman is concerned Muhammad Ali may have passed but his spirit will live forever,” Berman wrote.
-
Ali apparently said with that Frazier fight it was the closest he ever felt to dying back then. I think he even dropped to the canvas after it was over.
-
Best ever , rest in peace champ

absolutley...JOE was a heart fighter he'd never quit Eddie futch saved him from himself, that fight was increadble with all the twists and turns in a real heavyweight fight we just don't see anymore @ that level, Joe would never stop he had that heart that you also see seldom lacking these days and probably the last 10-15 years Evander Holyfield was the last IMO of the true heart champions with the same mentality they were cut from the same cloth.
-
Best ever , rest in peace champ
absolutley the greatest of them all the night he fought Cleveland Williams was him IMO @ his finest.
-
He'll hopefully drop the water and tighten up before the night show.
;D ;D

Oh brother, brutal 13'' arms and pencilneck of peace on that geek ::) Wouldn't last 20 seconds in a battle in a thong against Phil on stage.

Like his gift of gab, and respect his legacy as one of boxing's legends, but I cannot give a pass to anyone who, born outside the religion/culture, chooses to become Muslim
-
Great boxer, but there have been a few great boxers, never got the hype with his act and personality, but I appreciate others did.

In boxing , is what you do before you retire is what counts.
There's a lot of athletes/great business men out there, that's not the point, I'm glad both Holmes and Foreman did good after retiring from boxing.
But neither can claim being the greatest of all time.

Toronto resident George Chuvalo fought him twice, and although Ali won, he could not knock the man out.

first fight kinda reminds me of the movie Rocky, went 15 rounds, Ali was faster but Chuvalo hit like his hands were made of bricks like the Thing from Fantastic 4
Bodybuilding related, once shared the Leg press with Chuvalo at the gym back in the 90's lol

Ali was the Arnold of boxing. Cocky, witty and a winner. Foreman/Frazier was his Ferrigno.

George got saved.
Unfortunately, Ali chose to worship the illiterate pedophile "prophet" and is doomed to a Christ-less eternity in the lake of fire.

Say what you want about Ali ..... but when it came to fighting he was possibly the BEST- EVER
It can't be denied, he beat EVERYBODY in the golden era of boxing- Liston, Foreman, Frazier, Norton, Shavers, Patterson, Lyle .... he had the heart of a lion and a chin of granite- draft dodger- yes, racist- yes, treated Frazier like a dog- yes, hypocrite in A LOT of ways- yes, but none the less, an AWESOME fighter, who would have WRECKED Tyson for those who don't know boxing
Too bad he is in hell in my opinion because of his religious choices- I gotta believe he wishes he lived his life differently right about now, but it's TOO LATE..... :(

He never denounced the millions of his co-religionists who shout "Death to America!" every day.
He is no hero of mine.

Ali was the best. He was however not a draft dodger. A draft dodger is one whom runs to Canada to get Way from the draft. Ali flatly stated publicly that he was not going to fight in a war for a country that did not treat his people as equals. For that he should have been given a medal.

Not sure if true story but my old man claimed that when he was a kid he almost got to serve Clay a hamburger but the boss and patrons unwelcomed the colored folks from the establishment there in White County, Indiana, where the slogan at the time was Keep White County White.

Fairly sure he's made numerous statements denouncing the radical Islamists. The denomination of Islam that Ali followed after leaving the NOI suffers persecution by the hands of the Islamic traditionalists due to being too moderate.

If you think about it,that would make Wilt Chamberlain the greatest heavyweight boxer of all time.
He clearly missed out on some easy multi-million dolalr paydays,by sticking with the less lucrative NBA .:D
