Just learned of this extremely sad news and my deepest sympathies are with him. I am partial to Ali but it has to be said the way Ali treated Frazier was uncool. All Frazier did was to march up to the US President and ask him to give Ali his licence to box again. He also helped Ali financially, he had it done through a mutual person so that it wudnt hurt Ali's pride... that is a sign of a good character... thats wot sits uneasy with me abt Ali when it comes to him n Farzier. Admittedly he went way too far with the whole gorilla thing to an extent that it mentally unbalanced Farzier... but even that, it was 4 the fight, in was in the ring. I'm pissed at Ali coz he 4got the goodness Farzier showed him outside of the ring, Ali was a prick to him even out there.


PS - Ali was it! There will never be another 1 like him

A sad day. Highly recommend the HBO documentary "Thriller in Manila."
