The Parkinson interviews were entertaining and in the end prophetic…….

He was the best boxer of 20th Century, here’s why – he was fast

 

Ali on Vietnam war, …….”My conscious won’t let me go shoot my brother, or some darker people, or some poor hungry people in the mud for big powerful America. And shoot them for what? They never called me nigger, they never lynched me, they didn’t put no dogs on me, they didn’t rob me of my nationality, rape and kill my mother and father… Shoot them for what? …How can I shoot them poor people, Just take me to jail.” A man of conviction and intelligence.

Still funny in adversity
