    Those Muslims are always shouting Allah because they genuinely believe they are doing it for their religion.

    Ali was past his prime in all but the Liston fight.

    And?

    Liston may have been past his peak, but there was nothing to indicate that he was less than formidable going into the first fight. Two 1st round KO victories over Patterson following his run through the ranks indicate that he was still a force to be reckoned with.

    Frazier was past his best, but then, so was Ali. And Joe still had something to offer in both those rematches.

    ROLMAO... Elvis went for training at Fort Hood, then was sent to the 3rd ARMOR DIVISION in Friedberg, Germany.

    A General, George M Randell, offered Elvis "special services" once again.

    When Elvis turned down the offer, he was assigned to drive for a Capt. Russel, company commander of Comp. D.

    Russel soon tired of the attention and Elvis was reassigned to a sgt. Ira Jones of Company C.

    So yeah, you got it partially right, after Elvis did his armor training at Ft. Hood and was assigned to the 3rd. ARMOR DIVISION in Germany.

    Seems that YOU... as many others who post here, offer half A$$ed info presented as fact, without researching.

    :rofl

    Going off a fighter ko'ing someone, anyone in the very first round is the absolute worst way to ever use to gauge if a fighter is still performing at his peak level.

    That just means he caught one with a shot that really affected his opponent very early. To Guage a fighter off previous performances, you need to see them going a bunch of rounds, they are as fresh as they could possibly be in the first round, strongest and fastest they will be all night long.

    Usually takes a good 3 to 7 rounds for one's age to really start showing, unless they truly can't pull the trigger anymore

    As it turns out the Holyfield he fought probably was near his heavyweight prime.

    How can he have an insane resume if he didn't face any southpaws?

    Lewis never faced a southpaw and he has one of the best resumes of all time.
