    For selfish reasons, Ali vs. Foreman. I bet more, and made more, money on bets from that fight than any other before or since (both bookies and friends), and that was even with the subtraction of 2 who never paid me. I bought 2 new vehicles with the money I made from that fight, a car for my wife and a truck for me. In most cases I got about 3 to 1 odds. I was betting on styles and my belief that Ali was one level above Foreman. It seemed that nearly everybody I knew wanted to bet on Foreman in that fight.

    Because when we've done as many of these as we have over the years one feels the need to expand on the worn subject.

    I went to Sibson v Kaylor.
    That was a great British MW era.

    Can I ask the guys who loves Dempsey-Firpo a question?

    How do you even enjoy watching the fight?
