30 for 30: Anyone seen it? It's good stuff.
Anyone catch Muhammed and Larry this past week? It's a good documentary on the epic matchup at the end of Ali's career. Ali was 38 and had slowed dramitically not only in his physical speed but his speech as well. Ali got paid 8 million for the fight.
The scene of Ali preparing for the fight in front of fans, who were mesmorized at what they were seeing was stunning. You could see the fans, shocked, at an overweight, slow Ali getting beaten up by his sparring partners.
Ali got beaten up by Holmes. I think they said he threw one punch in the first round.
