    It's not like he fought Oliver McCall , Lennox Lewis , Henry Akinwande , James Douglas and Mike Tyson . That would have posed a test , wouldn't it ?

    Yet 4 Ali it turned that Cooper , Jones and Frazier were a hard enough test at which he either failed , had 2 cheat , or had 2 have d mercy of d judges .

    Not 2 mention Foreman , at least Ali's , if not any man's ever biggest gain from a mountain sized heap of cheats .

    I'm a 3. Possibly a 4. I think everyone should categorize themselves.

    I'm sure that Muhammad Ali must have slept with one of Frankenfrank's girlfriends in a previous life !

    It's a well founded rumor that Jean Pierre Coopman was drugged by Bundini.

    The most amusing excuse about the Foreman fight is the "George was drugged" one. Some twats allege this because Foreman "looked lethargic" Bollocks ! For the first five rounds,he looked just as he was against Frazier,Roman and Norton. Constantly throwing punches that get blocked or miss your opponent wear a fighter down. Especially when the other guy's connecting with his own punches.


    Nobody alleges that Nigel Benn was drugged in his fight with Michael Watson,do they ? Michael made Nigel miss frequently. Benn was exhausted by the sixth round and was knocked to the canvas by a softish jab.

    Frankenfrank is now digging up evidence to prove that Brian London was cheated out of winning the championship from Muhammad Ali. Angelo Dundee was seen slipping into London's dressing room,pre fight,and dropping Horlicks into Brian's water bottles.

    While Cassius Clay / Muhammad Ali has been involved with many 'controversial fights',
    none is worse than the Jimmy Young bout.

    It appears that the scoring judges and referee where told to just score the round
    for Muhammad Ali, unless Jimmy Young was absolutely dominant.

    Which meant, Ali got the benefit of every close round, and was also awarded rounds
    that he lost by a close margin.

    In other words, the '3 scoring officials were told to 'play ball' or they wouldn't have
    gotten the nice payed gig, plus Free Led Zeppelin front row seat tickets and back-stage
    passes to the concert later played at the Civic Centre.

    If show tickets can buy a fight, I'm surprised there aren't a lot more of them being rigged.

    Who financed Ali's fixed fights? Who arranged them?
