I do n't think Dundee wanted Ali to have those last fights. He just took the attitude that if Muhammad had to take them,he'd be in his corner like he always was. I still wish that he'd retired after Manila. His life could have been very different today in consequence.
Herbert Muhammad was the biggest slimeball in this instance. A lot of people think that if he'd advised Muhammad to retire,he'd have listened.
there was some bloke on the documentry about manila and he was not brown:good and he claimed he told ali what to say at times including some of his famous stuff
Just because they've trained boxers doesn't make them more knowledgeable about boxing's history. Plenty of posters here have also spent years and years analyzing fights and going over records. Besides, profession does not increase the validity of a list, although the reverse can be true.
That's nothing! Eddie Futch is the guy who said Ken Norton was "ready to be taken" and Duane Bobick would blow through him in 1 round. atsch :rofl
You can say being in the profession doesn't help the opinion, but can hurt it. There seems no budge with ESB and the stronghold to their opinions. That's okay, I was just trying to offer some perspective.
