Re: Ali's farewell visit to the UK
Well if that's correct & they are to with Max Clifford then he can go whistle in the wind! He prbably doesn't even know half the stuff about Ali as us fans do! Ali is the greatest sportman ever, but those prices seem a con to me!bennie wrote:These prices are to do with Max Clifford.telboy66 wrote:Just been checking out Mamouth Events who are organizing the Ali visit & the prices at my nearest (Wembley) are way out of my league, Cheapest tickets start at £400 up to VIP at 1,500 it looks like I will just have remember him as he was which is no bad deal
Ali's health is obviously declining, & now probably at an alarming rate, so this is the last chance for him the come to the UK! However, guys like Max Clifford see it as a money making opportunity, nothing more! These guys don't give a shit about Ali saying goodbye to the fans in the UK or anywhere else for that matter!

Re: Ali's farewell visit to the UK
You think Ali has nobody around him who knows how to make a fiver so they just naively signed away decision making to Max Clifford.

Re: Ali's farewell visit to the UK
I was lucky enough to meet the greatest back in 1988.
Now had I not done so, I wonder if I would have been clamouring for a ticket, and I have to say, I don't think I would.
There's something about this that is bordering on bad taste.
I want to remember the great man in his prime.
I'm not at all sure I want to see the leeches rolling him out for personal gain.
I hear that his health is horrendously poor right now.
I'm with Terry D on this one.

Re: Ali's farewell visit to the UK
I agree, the only reason I would be going is because it would be free to me and obviously I'm not going to turn down the opportunity to meet the great man if he's an hour away from my home.
I certainly would not pay for it. Perhaps that's a little hypocritical, I'll see what happens anyway.
My grandfather had Parkinson's, it's an awful condition and he should just be left in peace to deal with it with the people who love and care for him.
That said, perhaps he still enjoys the acclaim and attention, even now.
Who knows..

Ali is the last 'great' standing imo - now that Michael Jackson is not here.
By great I mean someone who can touch the whole world.

Re: Ali's farewell visit to the UK
No arguments, here. Can you imagine how good Ali would have been in 1969? We never saw his true peak.
His best years were taken from him,his comeback fight against the best white hope there was Jerry Quarry,they wanted him beat,but he overcame them,the greatest ever ALI
