Ali was a mediocre heavyweight fighter?

I did not know that!

Tell us, if you will - what gave you this special insight?

CA....

Since you are clueless on the topic, that would be impossible.

(I notice you also truncated what I actually said—a favorite trick if the media—whose promotion you so avidly swallow).

Do you also believe that Obama is the greatest president of all time?

Here is the real Ali:

Ali takes a rest during his fight with Joe Frazier


Media-created fraud Ali just got clobbered by Joe Frazier's left hook.


The talented Ali practices the limbo in his fight with Joe Frazier.


The athletic Ali practices his leg raises during his fight with Joe Frazier.


Ali tries out new boxing stance in his fight with Joe Frazier.


Jimmy Young harassing terrified, swollen-faced Ali.


Ali knocked down by 185 pound Henry Cooper’s left hook in his fight immediately before Ali's two fakes with Sonny Liston.

The bell rang ending the round as Ali got up and lurched toward his corner.

Then Ali got a rest of several minutes between rounds before the fight resumed, instead of the legal one minute between rounds.


Ali knocked down by Sonny Banks’ left hook.

Ali could not defend himself against a left hook.


Ali holds the distinction of being the only heavyweight champion in the history of boxing to lose his title to a novice who had only seven professional fights--Leon Spinks.
