Ali\'s Dozen on ESPN
Wow, that guy was incredible. I am too young to have watched him in his prime, but you have to check out the show “Ali’s Dozen.”
My favorite has to be when he fought World Boxing Association Champion Ernie Terrell. Ali was World Boxing Councel Champion & this was a fight to unify the title. Terrell refused to call Ali anything but his birth name of Clay. Ali went off on him in a press conference and told him “You will announce my name in the center of that ring! I’m gonna punish you!” ...And boy did he! You can read his lips during the fight as he pounds this poor guy to death. “What’s my name chump? What’s my name!?!” Man it was awesome. There are lots of other great moments too. That Will Smith movie did not do the real Ali justice. |

Re: Ali\'s Dozen on ESPN
The "launching liston" speech is so great. I wonder how long it took him to come up with stuff like that.
Seeing Ali makes you realize why boxing is so boring today. Oh, and every big fight being on PPV, bad matchups, and fixed judging. |
