Muhammad Ali was a good boxer, but pretty much garbage in every other facet of his life. Unfortunately, too many people, being good at just one thing can cover up a multitude of other sins. Bill Clinton and Bill Cosby come to mind, one can give good speeches and one is a good comic, and that was enough for most people to ignore the fact that they are also rapists and all-around pond scum as human beings.
That’s why I’m glad he’s gone.
Clay was a talented athlete... He was also an arsehole.
No hero at any level in my book.
I remember him as a draft dodger.
