Most of this forum will be claiming that Ali rose from the grave after three days and ascended into the heavens.
Marciano came very close to being knocked out by Moore. Without help from the referee he probably would have been. The ref gave him several extra...
1976 Ali would be very difficult to beat, short of a stoppage. He had his operatives working in the backroom arraigning "gift" decisions. I doubt...

In what way did he throw in the towel? Liston got up as soon as Ali went to a neutral corner. That is what he was supposed to do. The count did...
