Muhammed Ali Dead at 74

You really don't know what you're talking about.

Then show me the light oh so knowledgeable person.

Glad to know he's at rest finally. Its tough seeing someone you admire struggle with Parkinsons or dementia.

Especially admired his stance on the Vietnam war and the farce of draft boards. He was brave enough to risk imprisonment and losing his livelihood. Whereas a Donald Trump hid behind some fake doctor's note.

Ali hid behind a racist, crackpot, sectarian gang. I don't see how that's any better.

Let's not derail the thread into smack talking Ali please, it never goes well in threads like this.

What's wrong with criticism if it's well founded?

I mean, to be clear Muhammad Ali didn't just convert to Islam to get out of military service, he joined the Nation of Islam, which is, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center

the Nation of Islam (NOI) has grown into one of the wealthiest and best-known organizations in black America. Its theology of innate black superiority over whites and the deeply racist, anti-Semitic and anti-gay rhetoric of its leaders have earned the NOI a prominent position in the ranks of organized hate.

Never really cared for boxing but he was a great idol for one of my countries great boxers so he was good.

A great boxer who could fight with wit and humour, a rare thing indeed

[Hexian]

No he wasn't and that is the sad part.

Glory to the idols of previous and upcoming generations am i right?
Idolize people that are the same as you and me.

I ask you for what?
Vanity is all there is vanity is a piece of the upcoming dark world that we build around us.

He is worth as much as the grandmother next door for caring about her grand children, no more nor less.

Even though I am on my ipad I still managed to cut myself on the edges of this post while swiping down.

The term edgy doesn't really feel that unique it doesn't add anything to my persona.
But if you feel that i'm edgy maybe don't read my comments after all it is your decision to get cut(metaphoricly speaking @spelling ugh) .

inna lillahi wa in allah-e-rajioon

A great man and a true Muslim.

Like half of you even watched hes matches.

Please stop talking like you even knew what he was standing for.

How are those two things even related? What the hell are you saying?

[Deleted]

Don't even know the name.
Not even gonna google it.

Point was people die every day why this should deserve a news because he was a good/great boxer?

While I give little shit about Ali, this is pretty much saying that people like Gandhi for example should just be buried without a word. Martin Luther King? Just another dead black guy I reckon .. who cares, dead people are dead.


Hilarious.
