You know, I am not a fan of boxing, must admit I always thought it was a bunch of thick headed thugs beating each other up. Then I saw Ali....and I thought he must just be ducking and moving his head at random...one of these days he was going to zig when the other guy zagged and that'd be the end of the Ali legend.
Well, call it what you will, I became impressed with the skill of anticipation and speed Ali showed so often, so consistently, he truly could not just be a lucky guy with a big, thick skull...he was avoiding blows with purpose at a speed that I could only imagine.
I believe he was a good man, we would never agree on religion, but I respect him and mourn his passing.
Godspeed Mohammed. Godspeed...
