i think i saw this last year and it's some brutal, brutal sh*t! Can't watch it 2nite like cos I think I need to get up on the roof got no signal coming thru :witzend:
The temperature at which this fight was contested was insane, makes you wonder about the morons that arrange this sh*t.

Ali coming across as a bit off an arse! Some of the stuff he did to JF was out of order.

Joe ought to remember the money Ali generated for him and so many other heavyweights. He picked up two-and-a-half million dollars for fighting Ali in March 1971, which even today sounds like a helluva lot.
Muhammad is 69 today.
