    He was at the Ali vs Inoki farce and also the third Ali Norton fight but I haven't seen him anywhere else.

    Here are two clips of him:

    I was kind of wondering the same thing. I watched the Ali-Norton fight a few weeks ago and until I saw the guy on camera I thought it might be Jim Brown.

    I've noticed Don Dunphy in some footage of Louis-era fights and thought Jesus, was that guy born old?

    And then some guy shoves him really hard! Never saw that before. I wonder what was going on there.

    I know I shouldn't laugh at it but it is funny! I think the guy in the crowd was taunting the Norton camp as they walked past and one of Norton's guys took exception to it.

    What makes it funnier is that the guy disappears completely after being pushed over.
