    Never noticed there was a poster of a Hurricane Carter fight.

    It will indeed. Let's hope the champ has a while left yet.

    Its also sad/strange to note that from From and including Liston, approx half the opponents Ali fought have since passed away - Accidents and Murder contributing - the fascinating stories of these fascinating men continued beyond the ring.

    It's weird, Ali seems to be the only athlete that prompts people to start "I will be sad when you are dead" type threads.

    No it's not. You're talking about one of the most if not the most renowned and beloved athletes of all time.

    Amen to that ! He still polarises but many of us,me included,think a lot of him.
