No Vietmanese ever called Ali a nigger.

My Ali story; In the mid 90's I'm on patrol in central Harlem around W116st. I notice a crowd on the s/w corner of Lenox ave by the Mosque. Nothing alarming just a crowd, so we drive closer slowly...In the middle of the crowd is Ali...he's smiling, the crowd is engaging him...not wanting to interrupt we move on and get involved with other crap.
Later we find out that Ali had been staying downtown with his family, was completely gone in the head.. and had escaped and traveled uptown... by himself.... to see Harlem again. He ended up in the Precinct being safeguarded by other cawps until his family showed to claim him.
At the time it wasnt that well known how bad he was, so it wasnt until a couple of other cawps tried to talk to him that it all became clear... and they rescued him. A few years later, on that same corner, I watched the boxer Mitch "Blood" Green stagger around on Angel Dust after two 12 year olds stole his bike.
Good times!

Thank you for your service. +1 I get the feeling Green was a legit one of the good ones. No joke, mad respect. Probably knows my uncle, esp if he was on WTC cleanup. I don't hate all cawps. Far from it.

RIP.
Its criminal how great fighters like Ali had to get their brains beaten in for a few thousand dollars and shmucks like Mayweather can make $100 million dancing around the ring avoiding every engagement like a little fairy.

moron. ali would've easily been the greatest heavy weight and maybe boxer ever if he didn't have to take a couple of years off because of the draft. can't say i'm for or against his stance. he did what he thought he had to do and was always principled in the way he lived his life. Both my older brothers got drafted. One went to Vietnam. Neither wanted to go but did their duty.
Fuck Ali. Fuck him right in his pussy.
Yeah they should put all those draft dodgers in jail. Like GWB, dick Cheney and Joe Biden. Ali sacrificed a lot for his beliefs, they were rewarded

Yes, Texas has its own Air Force, lol. yes. That's how he dodged the draft. . He jumped ahead of other people who were in Line longer than he was thanks to his connections . And did not complete his six month obligation, so that he could go to Harvard b school. And he and dick couldn't throw enough other people's children into war as cannon fodder
