    :lol:



    Larry was famous for 'sneaking a peak' in training camp. He told Gene Kilroy that Ali's dick looked like "Earnie Shavers wearing a roll-neck sweater".

    Yes,at times Ali was an arrogant arsehole.It may have been more graceful on his part to be more humble like Floyd Patterson,but then again he had a lot to be arrogant about.

    As for his spiritual beliefs....
    No, I don't believe that the white race were created by an evil scientist called Yakub ,over thousands of years, through a process of intensive inbreeding.

    Though to be fair to the Nation of Islam ,their beliefs are no more far fetched than that of most mainstream religions.

    Juvenile insults? Hell, I was complimenting you son. :rasta

    Ali was not arrogant. He was confident, a Powerful Black Man, like Jack Johnson, another Black Champion you probably fear.

    I,m black you idiot. Does'nt mean that Ali was not an ******* at times Jack Johnson is another interesting case though he was the first black HW champion in history he also activelly shut out the other black contenders once he was champion. Great fighter and great man are two different things.

    And you have yet to disprove Ali being an arrogant ******* at times.

    Bringing your son to the point where he gets multi-million dollar paydays <<< Racial bull**** from a supposed enlightened and religious man, obviously.

    I've got zero problem with someone sleeping around. ****ing every tweener that comes into your training camp and using your celebrity to get away from child support is another thing completely.

    People laugh at how Evander Holyfield is broke from running through wives and having so many kids, but at least the man's financially there. Ali get's off clean, which I find disgusting.

    As for what page it's on, Larry Holmes is one of the fighters interviewed in Facing Ali. His sections, like all of the fighters, is all of 10 pages long. Feel free to crack open a book and educate yourself sometime as opposed distorting things on here.

    "Ali hit his wife. Can't particularly respect that."

    "Joe Frazier was a hardass to his kids!!!11"

    "Ali has probably a half dozen illegetimate children out there."

    "roffle Ali slept around who cares lol"

    It's ****ing broken, give it a break. :tired

    More like the entire 20 years he was a professional fighter. He's congratulated to no end for mellowing with age, as if it mattered after everything he did when it mattered.

    Muhammad Ali is truly THE GREATEST in and out of the ring
    He totally transformed boxing then became one of the most famouus people in the world.
    People castigated him for his religious beliefs, called him fake etc BUT his beliefs and religious committment are just as strong today . Meeting Muhammad Ali was one of the greatest events in my life.
    The first time I saw him fight, against Henry Cooper in London I booed him into the ring, but left the fight a life long fan
