Which brings to mind the memory that Ali made Jimmy Young look like a better puncher than Mike Tyson in an exhibition a few years before their...
I am not spilling an alcoholic drink in the lap of any Muslim heavyweight champion. Ali is definitely out. Marciano had a temper, and once...
Hard for me to look at Torres/Cotton and not favor Ike.
