    Even though Ali was not the most humble guy. I did get a sense of genuine honesty on his opinions of the old greats he didnt disrespect anyone he just called it how he saw it,and he didnt care for Dempsey of Johnsons style but he praised Tunney as one of the first fighters to actually show good technique. Also Praised Louis ability,but downed his lack of footwork. He was genuinly impressed with Charles,Walcott thought Marciano made many mistakes but that his genuine toughness and power made up for all that and Ali says those 3 would have been his toughest.

    Super post mate. You've covered heaps right there and it's good to have someone in the exact same corner.
