Muhammad Ali Jr. Says His Father Would Have Supported Donald Trump and Hated Black Lives Matter

I think once Ali got away from the Nation of Islam, he moderated significantly.

I adore George Foreman. Met him once. He is so humble and down to earth and for a big man he has such welcoming presence. If you ever get time and haven’t seen his Oxford presentation, it’s quite inspirational.

Keep in mind that Gwen Berry couldn’t have done this without today’s hyper-politicized sports media. Yes, Gwen Berry should be condemned for her actions. But this is just a preview of what we are going to be fed during the Tokyo Olympics.

I predict a two-week poop show. The IOC would be wise to disinvite team USA.

I suspect something bad coming out of this that is going to embarrass this country to no end.

Berry is mad cause she didn’t do that well and wants to take the spotlight off everyone else and back onto her.

So she acts up like a spoiled brat and claims it was due to CRT and racist America.

And half the country believes her.

I watched (tv) the fight between George Foreman in his comeback and some tall Canadian, named Lakusta (I think).
George got angry from a good blow and hit Lakusta directly on the head with a piledriver from space. It drove Lakusta directly into the mat and he did not get back up. Afterward, I think George was embarrassed by the momentary angry spurt which brought back the original Fightin George.

And yes, Foreman could hit like a battering ram.

I just rewatched it on dailymotion

Man....Foreman at 261 and 42 still had excellent wind

Lakusta was way out of shape or he was just struggling running from those sequoia trunk arms blinding him....19 inch biceps

But he came up off the mat from the first knockdown in the third and tagged Foreman with a right hand that stunned Foreman and man him stumbled for a second

Then as u said Foreman turned it up...and it was over.....total mismatch...a paid sparring event

Man the ring girl was hot hot...legs forever

What I really liked about it was how Foreman’s hand came down and hit him from above. it was like a “Rod from God” kind of attack. Drove him straight into the mat.

I don’t think it was a total mismatch, he did clock Foreman a good one.

Thanks for that, great video.

So many boxers ended up with shady managers that took their fortunes and the boxers themselves went by the wayside, some into crime.

Foreman is very fortunate that never happened to him.

Hector Camacho immediately comes to mind......

I do have to ask a question, based on the fact that most shot putters and hammer throwers seem to have a lot of heft.

How is having that heft an advantage?
