It's obvious dude does not like Ali, and was probably one of those racist CACs rooting against Ali back in the day.

First off to say that Cossel and Dundee made Ali :rudy: is complete bullshyt.

Brought up all the fighters who were robbed against Ali, which he a point (Norton wasn't robbed in the 2nd fight though, Ali legitimately won that fight). The you here him say "Joe Frazier, those were good fights, and Joe Frazier, unfortunately, got beat" Unfortunately? :usure: Aka He was rooting for Frazier, and is made Ali beat him. Funny how he didn't mention the Foreman fight :heh: Plus, he's tryna knock Ali for not having 1 punch power :russ:

Plus his other views are comical. The best fighter ever is Bob Fitzsimmons? Fitzsimmons from the late 1800's where the majority of the HWs were 190 lbs and the Black contenders were avoided like the plague? Yeah, ok pal :bryan:

Talking about how James J. Jeffries was the hardest hitter ever and how he retired undefeated. Guess he forgot about the L he took to my Jack Johnson :mjpls: Or maybe he purposely didn't bring that up :mjpls:

Somebody get this old racist toothless CAC the fukk outta here :camby:

I think its a little too pretentious to assume that he's all that you called him because you have different opinions.

http://espn.go.com/blog/dan-rafael/...gs-get-into-it-at-klitschko-jennings-weigh-in


It was what happened after they left the scales that was crazy. Shannon Briggs, who has tried to goad Klitschko into a fight for the past couple of years by showing up wherever Klitschko is and hollering “Let’s go champ!” at him was, of course, there. He did not go after Klitschko. If he had he would have been booted out by security.

But that didn’t stop him from causing a scene. The former heavyweight champion got into a wild shouting match with titleholder Deontay Wilder, who was also there, perhaps scouting Klitschko for a future unification match.

Wilder and Briggs wound up surrounded by media as they shouted at each other standing a few feet apart. Briggs, naturally, invoked his “Let’s go champ” nonsense and also shouted over and at Wilder, “I will knock you out!” Briggs, sweating profusely, was out of control but Wilder screamed right back at him and they looked like they might duke it out right there. But standing between them as a de facto referee was Lewis, who once drilled Briggs in a world title fight. It went on for a few minutes until things cooled off.

As sick as it sounds, and as ridiculously undeserving as Briggs is of a title opportunity, I can actually see Wilder fighting Briggs on a “Premier Boxing Champions” card this year. Wilder will look great destroying him and Briggs is crazy enough and has a well known enough name to stoke interest in such a fight with his loony antics.

Dan Rafael chat wrap 4/24:

Mayweather vs. Pacquiao:
- Possible that stand alone bars not affiliated with hotels and casinos on the strip could broadcast the PPV.
- Pacquiao presents the biggest stylistic challenge that Floyd has ever faced.
- Mayweather's KO of Ortiz cheap? It was not the best sportsmanship, but a legal blow.
- No opponent yet for LSC.
- The undercard is a disappointment.
- If Manny were to beat Floyd cleanly, he believes Floyd would be gracious. Was always impressed with how gracious Hamed was after losing to Barrera.
- Closed circuit is believed to be sold out.
- Arum and Haymon buy up their ticket allotments and have deals in place with ticket brokers to sell them for large profits.
- Bayless is the best ref for the fight.
- Does not agree with ODH that Bayless gives Floyd an advantage.
- Both sides are blaming the other for the ticket issues.
- Showtime is the lead producer.
- All SAS' s interviews with Floyd will be shown together as a special next Tuesday.
- Broadcast team and their roles have not officially been announced yet.

The rest of boxing:
- Saw Ward recently and he looks in great shape.
- There is no HW currently that can give Wlad a tough fight.
- Would like to see Walters-Cueller, but promoters make it unlikely.
- Monroe is a talented fighter and if he loses to GGG it should not hurt his career.
- HBO would travel to Europe for Wlad-Fury.
- After JCC's loss, what does Froch do? Maybe GGG as he said he would travel to the UK. Paul Smith if he beats Ward.
- Dirrell could win via a KO vs. Jack, but a decision wouldn't be surprising.
- Heard a few names as potential opponents for Broner. One was Rances Barthelemy.
- Crawford has said he would like to eventually be at 147.
- Khan-Algieri undercard will be Malignaggi-O'Connor.
- WBO was not going to sanction Kameda-McDonnell, so Kameda is giving up his belt to fight for McDonnell's.
- Lomachenko is the one opponent Rigo could fight that he would want to watch.
- JCC has a famous last name, decent ability, is fun to watch, and has no work ethic.
- How big of an upset would Jennings beating Wlad be? Douglas-Tyson level. Definitely more than Rahman-Lewis.
- There probably is a rematch clause if Jennings won. It would make him the true HW Champion, but a rematch would likely cause a sanctioning body to strip a belt from him.
- Vitali will be there with Wlad.
- Thinks Geale will really have to work to make 157...which was Cotto's intent.
- Apparently the website: 1iota.com is offering free tickets for tonights Spike card and the May 29 Khan card.
- Delvin Rodriguez vs. Lara is supposed to be made for June. Lara should win by KO or 12-0.
- Cotto and Canelo are declining to comment, but their fight has been made.
- Vazquez-Fortuna is supposed to be May 23, but not official yet.
- LSC is disappointing because of his (lack of) competition.
- ODH says he has one more fight with Khan and it is tied to Showtime.
- No idea why the WBC ordered Stevenson-Kovalev again as Main Events has said they have no intentions of negotiating.
- Verdejo will see his competition step up for his June HBO debut.
- Does not see Crawford-Matthysse fighting next. Maybe one or two fights down the road.
- A fighter on the Matthysee-Prov card was listed as being a "7 fight veteran" with no wins. He saw him the night before at a night club drinking.
- PBC wants its top guys to fight 2-3 times per year.
- After Monroe, Lee would be on a short list of opponents for GGG.
- Brad Solomon - talented boxer, but not fan friendly.
- Fonfara vs. Beterbiev? Interesting fight and tough to pick.
