Yeah I was watching a fight with Muhammad and Sonny Liston. I thought it was going to be the one where he knocked him out right away or whatever but it wasn't, so I turned it off eventually.
I don't know enough about boxing to analyze him or anything, but it seems like back in the day the heavyweights were more agile and moved around a lot more. Maybe not though.
But the one thing I can say that kind of goes with Outlaws post is that he is always made out to be like this hero, lighting the flame at Atlanta 96 and showing up at the MLB all star game last year, but really in his day he didn't seem like some great leader or great person. He was a loud mouth boxer really. I know he lead a big civil rights type thing with him turning to Islam, but he just didn't seem like this great guy from clips and stuff I've seen.
