    Blast From the Past. One of the Greatest Athletes of the 20th Century. ALI

    And the king of video clips with not only his fists but his mouth. His popularity world wide was insane. As a 12 year old, I'd never seen anything like it and to this day he's my favorite boxer of all time. The way he ran his mouth, his humor, his style of boxing that blew audiences minds with a heavy weight that could dance around with both fists dangling around his hips instead of constantly being up high guarding his head. Dodging blow after blow with super eye sight and reflexes instead of his gloves. Then at the right time, turned in offensive fashion that was so fast and punishing.

    I love that clip too where later on there was a guy who belittled him for changing his name and Ali referred to him as an "Uncle Tom". After the Final Bell, Ali was screaming at him "What's My NAME!!" Over and Over. Good Shit.

    And don't forget, had it not been for Ali VS Buckner, there would be no Rocky.
