That guy was one tough SOB! I heard he isn't doing so well now, he's like 82 and has dementia.
He fought a long time and against the very best like Ali and Frazier sorts, he could be beat on points but you'd sure know you were in a fight. The guy never even got knocked to the canvass in his entire career of 90+ fights, that is one of the most incredible records in all of sports
I couldn't imagine fighting a guy like that
. He won a lot of fights but the very best could beat him, not a guy you'd ever handpick as an opponent to pad your record, he just fought in an era with so many other great heavyweights, I'm sure everyone of those guys has great respect for him. I'm not a huge boxing fan but will certainly watch it and have been to a couple of fights when I lived in Vegas, nobody big but I'll take free tickets if offered
