    Here is one thing I didn't know about the greatest boxer of all time. That is was Ali, wait because Ali wasn't the greatest boxer, or even the greatest heavyweight of all time.

    I'll add in one or two :)

    Did you know that glove cutting corner bs against Cooper saved him from getting starched in the following round?

    Did you know he arguably lost three times against Ken Norton?

    11) Ali pounded out BlizzyBlizz's mom from behind while he choked her out with his big hands in a Macy's fitting room.

    True story. No, really. It happened.

    Ali might not have been the greatest in the ring, but his personality and everything he stood for gave him the title "The Greatest" :)

    The only knock on Ali was that he ducked Manny Pacquiao.

    No glove was ever cut in the fight with Henry Cooper that is pure Bull Feces. Heres what really happened as told to us by Angelo Dundee
    Ali was clowning ay the end of the 4th round Henry caught him with his notorious left hook Enerys Ammer & down he went. He was up quickly & the bell saved him. Ali was on cloud 9 didn't know where he was Angie saved the day he's seen a small split in the seam of Ali's glove. stick his fimger in it made it bigger & called the ref Those extra seconds allowed Ali's head to clear The fight continued with the same gloves Ali wasn't clowning any more & he literally toreJHenry;s face to ribbons.
    Did Angelo cheat ?? I gyess technically he did but I'd call it brilliant cornerwork

    Even more fun to think about is imagining what Vitali would have done had he not taken 4 years off do to injuries! You could tell after that near murder of Kirk Johnson that Vitali was really coming into his own. I mean to absolutely poach Johnson like that... man Klitschko was an ANIMAL. I think he'd have held the WBC belt and broken Louis defense record.

    There is no one greatest anything in sports. There is no one boxer who could beat every style. There is no one boxer who couldn't lose. Ali could never beat Norton and he even admitted this. The greatest doesn't lose to the same fighter 3 times.

    What about the illegal smelling salts that Dundee used to revive Clay after the knockdown?
