Ali was just gangster ruthless early on, he would sell anyone out to get ahead But one thing that spoke to me, is that his public bluster didn’t always match who he was behind the scenes… one day he’s a firebrand preaching the tenets of the Nation of Islam, the next he’s hosting all kinds of white people at his training retreat He was many things, but I will never call him truly hateful… he was only that way with Frazier because he was the only guy who truly tested him |

And though he's not 'exciting' Canelo Alverez is as potent a mix of proficient and tough as **** as any weight group has had in a while. I rarely go in rooting for him and always leave respecting him. And Golovkin, don't forget Golovkin.

Burns had no choice, if you’re talking Ali there is no avoiding woke talk… and it was portrayed masterfully here
No sides were taken, it was all presented matter of factly IMO… and I’ve criticized Burns plenty for letting his lefty views invade his story over the years But that wasn’t the case here at all, this was a warts and all honest look IMVHO |

I didn’t know about the fighting in Britain where he rubbed his American brashness in the Brits face. Wore a crown into the ring.
Also rented a bus, drove to Listons house at 1:00 am, leaned on the horn and woke him up. Liston comes out of his house enraged. Ali looks like he’s having the time of his life. I’ll take you out in the 8th round but if you want to go to heaven I’ll take you out in 7. Lol
