    Haha, I'm terribly biased. :oops: It's not as evident with this sport because of weight classes. Few of my favorite athletes (google if you dont know):

    Mike Tyson
    Roberto Duran
    Barry Sanders
    Pedro Martinez

    Best Dunk Contest Winner Ever :yep

    Since when does being a draft dodger make you a bad person? He had a point. Why the **** am I going to fight and die for a country that won't even let my people eat inside the ****ing resturant?

    And both Malcom and Ali were puppets of the Nation of Islam. But they had a legit motivation. How do you expect people to react when you constantly disrespect them at every turn. He had every right pissed off about that. And anyone who disagrees with that is speaking from a place of blatant ignorance.

    To listen to people call out Ali as a racist is really appalling.

    Maybe they don't know anything about racism in America at the time of Ali, so I can forgive them. They don't know any better.

    Do love Hakeem Olajuwon though.

    He ripped my heart out twice as a fan in the 1994/1995 playoffs. I learned how great he was through this.

    draft dodgers fled the country
    calling Ali a draft dodger is an insult to him and you are supposedly an Ali supporter.
