1960 der was a boy called cassius clay who worked so hard and earned a gold medal from boxing for his country…USA
Later on ali went into a restaurant and got kicked out jus because of his colour, ali say to the manager ‘‘ali said listen i won a gold medal in he olympics for this country’’ the manager replied ur still a n****** at the end of the day. this was 46 years ago…have things changed…no
jus few months back amir khan went to liver pool to see his younger brother fight, all the audience was gettin autograph of amir khan and being very nice.
when amir khan brother won on points against the white boy, suddenly the the crowd started shouting black c**** and pak*
and all kinds of racist comments, they threw bolttle at amir khan and went for him as the security escorted amir khan out.
the worst thing is these ppl were nice to him but they true colour showed when their were mad.
racism jealousy and violent has gotto stop!!!
or there will be so many more ali
:coolclick: for ya. I’ve been called a racist on this forum numerous times. But guess what!? Fook them! I like fighters of all cultures, Prince Naseem, Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather, Ahmed Kaador, Jack Johnson, Mayorga and Vargas. Hell just too many to list. But I do hate James Toney and I think he does not represent his self all that well.
thank u for sayin great things by ali, who is known for greatest charisma, greatest personality let jus say greatest person.
but racism still live on as the devil does, the cleverest racist pretend to be nice
listen am finding it offensive u dissin ali he like a martin luther king to me, say that in front of a brother and u find out, am black by the way am tellin u we hate uncle tom and love ali
thats the correct attitude to have, you should just like the fighters for their style or some aspect of their character that appeals. i like many different styles of fighter from a multitude of cultures and ethnicities and the same fundamental things shine through, be it their ring prescence or else personality. agreed about toney, his comments do seem to grate on me these days. as does his extraordinary waistline… ;D
Well i’m a brother and I think Ali wasn’t shat but a draft dodger…like most superstar athletes they like to hear themselves talk and fortunately for him he talked his way out of going to war…
Here’s my thing…every country like every family has problems and the USA..yeah we have our share of idiots, but the point is this…its so convient for motherfuccas to bad mouth the country while sleeping under the blanket of freedom and security that government and military provides…
Draft dodger? What was right about the Vietnam War? Wasn’t it a little strange to you that they changed him from a failing grade inelidgable to 1A? and what did the Vietnam war prove? And Ali not going had a major major major impact on history and society, had he went to war the whole system may be different. It was a great thing for Ali not to go to the draft.
