    Did you know guys that Ali's IQ=71

    who said he was intelligent?

    No. He may not be a genius, but people can see the difference between a man with below average IQ and a man like Ali.

    No, my friend, the hottest Zaire can go is in the 90's. The humidity is about the same. I went to Manila once in the summer. I literally crawl because of the heat and humidity if you are not used to it.

    I watched it. Ali"s doctor is an IDIOT... and I was shocked at how bitter Joe still is. Started to become hard to watch that Joe seemed happy about Ali's condition. I understand Joe being angry back then, but 30 years later, Let it go Joe!

    I think you are the gullible one. Ali was pretty much a low life, to put it mildly. People like to talk about how he was loved and so on. But in reality, he had many more detractors than fans. The of the average people out there hated his guts. It's not just the **** he talked to Frazier, also Patterson, Liston, Terrell and so many more fighters.

    I personally think he is a piece of ****.

    I think we have heard enough stories from the Ali perspective. Its about time to hear and see one from the opposing side.
     
  7. Maybe I'm wrong but I don't think it's an HBO show. I think they just dubbed American commentary over the Channel 4 documentary by British filmmaker John Dower. It was on English Telly a while ago.

    That was bizarre!!!!

    Kind of gives you a different perspective.....I never knew how Ali screwed Joe.

    Ali was such a " devout " Muslim....dodged the draft because of " Religious Beliefs " yet screwed all the chicks around.
    Sounds like a coward who hid behind religion and a typical hipocrite.

    Joe should let it go...just goes to show you how profoundly fileted Ali left him.


    Ali would say, Joe is a Gorilla...he can't think for himself and he can't talk right.
    Well look who can't talk right and who can't think for himself or even wipe his
    own ass.

    Let it go Joe!!!
