    From the later interviews I saw,Frazier still hated Ali for all that he said.

    I think a lot of what Ali said was done from promotional purposes,but Frazier saw it as taking it too far.

    Remember seeing an interview with Fraziers son(or brother), ringing Joe and Joes answering machine basically had the message saying "see the way Ali shakes? Well im the man that did it to him, leave your message.

    And this was a documentary from the last decade.

    Also,showed in an interview with Fraziers son, that Ali had come to the son(marvis?) years later after a fight,and said "tell your daddy,im sorry for things I said at the time"
    When Marvis told Joe this, he basically said "where was his apology back then?" and said he didnt accept the apology.

    There's a funny moment in Champions Forever where Frazier mentions the Uncle Tom insult and says he didn't actually know what an Uncle Tom was. he says he thought it was a guy who went around peeping through windows, at which point Larry Holmes bursts into laughter and says "You mean a peeping Tom". Frazier nods and says "Yeah and it got me mad cos I never went around peeping through no windows"

    I think Ali was just truly trying to sell the fight, i dont think a lot of the mean **** he said about fighters was serious

    Joe however took it to heart and thats why he hated Ali so much

    how does a fight between two undefeated heavyweight champions, Olympic gold medalists fighting in Madison Square Garden, need any more promotion then it already had?

    because this is what he always did, he did it for liston, he did it for frazier

    it would not have been called the fight of the century if ali did not cause such a stir
