Marciano was one of the best fighters of all time.



But Ali was the greatest.

Doesn't make it right. Some people(Morgan Freeman) turned down scholarships to go and served their country. He is and always will be a pussy and a coward in my mind.

And then Uncle Sam showed its gratitude by not allowing them to drink coffee in a restaurant or drink from a public water fountain.German POW's got much better treatment than black servicemembers.

There's nothing wrong with not wanting to fight for something you don't believe in. It's cowardly to not defend the US if it were under attack, but to force free men to fight overseas when the country isn't in danger is ridiculous.

I finally agree with you on something.

This one of Chuck Bednarik knocking out Frank Gifford in 1960 is a similar classic, though it's obviously more dear to Eagles fans than anyone else.

It’s an anniversary that Frank Gifford does not celebrate. Fifty years ago this weekend, as the Giants’ All-Pro running back, he lay crumpled at Yankee Stadium after having fumbled away a pass reception when blindsided by Eagles linebacker Chuck Bednarik late in a 17-10 loss. Unconscious, Gifford was carried off the field on a stretcher and examined. Wrapped in blankets with an ice-cold compress above his closed eyes, he was soon rolled on a gurney to an ambulance that hurried him to St. Elizabeth’s Hospital.

The diagnosis was said to be a “deep brain concussion,” and Gifford remained in the hospital for several days. His 1960 season was over...

This one is a little more famous, against the Steelers.

I hear they've named a cauliflower after him.

Could not agree with you more. Ali was smart & courageous to refuse to serve a country that did not even look at him as an equal to all other Americans. I hope the champ gets to celebrate 20 more birthdays!
