    His rope-a-dope against Holmes gets criminally underrated.

    feel guilty about saying this sometimes...cause he was sick....but, the first half of the berbick fight he did well, all things considered...that was a big effort from him as the ali he was then....if that makes sense how i've worded it

    Yeah, seems so. Of the tasteless rather than funny kind.

    The Terrell fight

    Terrell was better than a lot give him credit for and defending WBA champ. Ali served a virtual shut out

    Archie Moore Fight. Archie in his 40s made a career out of making young top ranked fighters look bad. Cassius destroyed him.
