What threads like this really illustrate is that there isn't a scrap of evidence of a fix in this fight. If there was, it wouldn't be necessary to...
Yes, I know. Because of Ali's remarks about him after the Wepner fight. Not entirely clear how that backs up your claim to have discovered an...
Perhaps you had better give the source of this interview with Tony Perez. Otherwise cynical people might claim that you're making it up.
