Muhammad Ali Marathon on ESPN Classic
It looks like they are running his fights chronologically. I hated Ali as a kid but have grown to appreciate his brilliance over time. I really miss that boxing era. I especially have enjoyed watching the interaction between Ali and Cossell.

He certainly deserves to have his name mentioned among "the best of all time."

Ali understood the hype was where the money comes from. He tried (numerous times) to explain that to Joe.

Joe just didn't get it.

Just like Foreman didn't get their fight's importance.

I don't remember Joe doing much for Ali either. Once joe started landing his hooks and checks he shelled out some sympathy cash. Agreed. But even back then Ali had a bigger plan.

Most people hated Ali at first. But as he continued to destroy opponents, and clown around while doing it, we went over to his side. Ali was a showman.

While heavyweight boxing is kinda bleh atm. the Welterweights and Middleweights have some damned good boxers in it still. You just have to know what to look for. There was a fight last week that i posted a thread about, that was better then anything MMA could ever hope to dream of. I also like MMA, but imo it will never be on the same level. Entertainment wise anyways.

That's right. I also have the right to think you're a silly bastard for it.
