No matter what.. ali calling joe repeatedly an uncle tom and a gorilla.....then admit that he went and address a klan meeting......

</div></div>

yes the movie played a few times last weekend- great movie...
the klan stuff was very unfortunate...
not ali's greatest moments at all;
he attempted to apologize to joe through his son, which did not sit well with joe...he would have preferred he went to him directly...
classy move by ali to pay his last respects, though

Re: RIP Joe Frazier

Joe was a hard country boy.... He grew up to be a hard determine man.. A man greatness is determined by the individual acts.. Ali going onto the parkinson show on the UK calling a working class man a sell out ?? an uncle tom.. a Gorrilla... ?? That Fraser was less to him than a white man ???..

The funny thing is Fraser never minded till the gorilla and uncle tom...He said it was just the game. When his son got impacted.... He phoned ali and told him to stop because his son was being abused... He told Ali about the threats to his family because of Ali saying and Ali did nothing.. So I understand Frazers bitterness.... and viseral hate of Ali.. To impact another mans family for a sporting event is <span style="color: #CC0000">unforgivable.....</span> apologies does not assuage the hurt of a father who's son is in tears....and after the man supported Ali... financially and went to meet the POTUS....

Frazer had to leave home as a boy to avoid a lynching.. a poor dirt farmer....Ali may have been pretty and photo genenic... but Frazer was a man a hard man.. the kind of man I know and respect...who did it the hard way....

I would want to eat Ali's heart... but then that is just a Taino cuisine!
