neil cooney 10,416 Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 RIP ali. he was one of the greatest boxers in a era of good/great boxers and quite possibly the the greatest of all times. RIP ali. he was one of the greatest boxers in a era of good/great boxers and quite possibly the the greatest of all times. That's the thing Trigger, he was a Champion in an era of Super Champions. The Golden Era IMO. Watching the news this morning they kept showing the footage of Henry Cooper putting Ali on the ropes. FFS I think that moment in sporting history meant more to you Brits than the '66 World Cup . LOL. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DogFox123 1,379 Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 I've been in tears at times over the years watching videos of him but today I'm pretty calm about things. No more suffering now champ, your soul is way too strong to ever fade away... RIP Champ. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
just-A-snap 1,269 Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 For me he was and always will be Cassius Marcellus Clay "RIP" And Rest in Peace to the man that Knocked him Out Henry Cooper. To my mind Absolutely no one can take away his Achievements in the Ring or the entitlement of his Political View. As an every day man I have no idea who he was, never lived in his house or spent any amount of time or even ever met him. As for his Political Views, just speaking for myself, that however is a totally different story. RIP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
