    Is there any record of what Ali and Frazier were saying to each other during the instructions?

    Ali kept saying "I'm going to kick your ass" over and over. Easy to lip read that part of the conversation!

    "I just can't quit you"

    "Can't quit you either"

    I could be wrong ... not that there's anything wrong with that.
