    The question is was Ali's collapse in the ring immediately after the fight was called just relief? Or was he about to experience what Sugar Ray did in '51 against Joey Maxim? Robinson took no punches that night wheras Ali took a beating to the head and body.
    My own view is that Eddie Futch did the right thing. The fight ended the way it was supposed to end.
