It didn't take long, did it?
Muhammed Ali is a wonderful person. He also has a wicked sense of humor. Don't understand why some people don't like him.
Oh, I think I fully understand it. It goes back to when he gave up his crown to avoid military service based on his principles. But I think you knew that.
It is amazing that at the prime of his career, even when offered, basically a 'Joe Louis' style enlistment, he turned it down. The ban from boxing literally cost him millions.
People also forget that it was Muhammad Ali that almost single handedly saved Howard Cosell after the "Look at that little monkey run." comment.
