War hawks are morons. But why should they care? Their sons will get infinite deferments for any reason necessary.

Fast forward to 2003...

The coolest thing about Muhammad Ali... as Mike Greeney pointed out the morning of...

yea he was a boxing beast... yea he beat some of the best ever in his sport and will forever be remembered as one of the GOATs

but he had MORE RL impact in social equality and injustice in America than he ever could have hoped to accomplish in a boxing ring... Who the fuck, at the age of 20 decides "I'm going to take on the American government"... Frazier's a smallfry...

RIP... I'm glad he isn't suffering through life anymore and he'll be remembered forever... not much more you can accomplish in a lifetime...

It took Mike Greenberg for you to realize that Muhammad Ali had a greater impact outside the ring than in it?

Great shit-talker... Wehther he was rhyming a couplet or just traditional shit-talkn.

Saw some old Thrilla in Manilla documentary footage pre-fight.

And they ask him his message for kids:
He said sutn like stop eating so much candy or you'll get cavities. eat natural foods and be active.
Was surreal. Sounded cheesy but he was 100% serious. And he started going into detail about his own cavities, and the hazards.
Badass.

and of course phenomenal boxer and Courageous social stands.

In my opinion MLK got shot due to his Vietnam speech
