I Just watched a segment on cold pizza(to be repeated around 1245 eastern on ESPN) with a writer named Jack Caslin(I think) who has just wrote a book on Ali called "sucker punch". He said he dedicated his book to Joe Frazier because he says he suffered because of Ali's antics. He also went on to say that Ali's conversion to Islam was not really genuine at the time and that he drove a wedge in the black community between Elijah Muhammad and Malcom X. He also stated that Ali left his wife and children and that his draft dodging was more a career decision than a religous one. He qoutes Ali on that one.
None of this is news to me on that cretin...he has never been my hero and should never have been America's hero as well. I still can't believe he lit the olympic torch a few years ago during the games..he was the anti-thesis of the values that a olympic athlete is suppossed to have. He also brought trash talking and poor sportsmanship in sports with his constant berating of the fellow boxers he went up against. I have always felt sorry for Frazier who was no match for the verbal attack he had to endure from the moron....ps....Wlad and Byrd will be interviewed at the same time and maybe in the same room on cold pizza...I think in about a half hour this will happen..stay tuned
