      🥊Frazier hurts every time he thinks of Ali. His hostility still rages within. It's a consuming, ugly bitterness he has carried for decades, the result of the hurtful things Ali has said. He insulted his intelligence, his character and his lack of black pride. Ali called Frazier ugly and ignorant and, most disturbingly, an Uncle Tom. Frazier, the son of South Carolina sharecroppers, was deeply wounded by Ali's ridicule which was accepted as socio-political fact and isolated Frazier from the black community.
      Ali somehow succeeded in making a fight between two African - American men a matter of black and white. Throughout the black community, he was an object of derision and scorn because of the way Ali treated him, it was cruel. The hatred grew intensely within Frazier. He was unable to compete with Ali's eloquence, but he had a left hook that could do the talking for him. Frazier, with loating in his heart and thunder in his Everlast gloves, punished Ali for the things he said.
      Notice after Ali vs Frazier 1 fight announcers said Frazier was feeling sic in his corner and he just wanted to go back to dressing room. That's because Joe couldn't slow his heart and nervous system back down to a resting state. Joe already had history of high blood pressure and diabetes, he spent nearly two weeks in the hospital for exhaustion, blood pressure, diabetes and kidney problems..
      BUT BUT when he was in his 40s Joe was out dancing and singing in the clubs while Ali couldn't talk and his tremors were getting worse. Younger folks haven't a clue what Ali actually did to Joe, let me explain by saying it's exactly like today's Hollywood liberal cancel culture. Frazier hated that Louisville Lip and before fight he got on his knees and prayed to God that he could make Ali perish.
      Personally i have to admit, everytime Frazier smacked Ali i cheered, We All Cheered, MILLIONS CHEERED

    I watched this live with my dad. I was 6 or 7. My dad was jumping up and down. My jaw was on the floor. What a glorious time to be alive. (Edit here in March 2024). I cannot believe the arguments and ugliness and ignorance this comment exposed. Yes, I vividly remember this. I remember all sorts of things from the late 60's and early 70's. I remember moving to our new house in 1971 at 4 years old. I remember my dad bringing home his first company car, a brand new bergundy 1969 Buick Skylark wagon. I remember going down a sidewalk to a restaurant near a neighborhood of a house my parents rented. I talked to my mom about it a few years ago and she told me there was no way I should remember that because it was in 1968. I remember getting a basketball and sleeping bag for my 5th birthday. I vividly remember Watergate being on the radio and television for what seemed an eternity. I remember being home with my mother the day they announced President Johnson's death on TV. I'd say that I remember everything about my life from age 4 on.

During this interview, the two of them were there to answer questions about their first fight in 1971. You can see from their expressions that Ali is totally into the fight mentally, his eyes are laser focused on what's being shown and in his head he is shadow boxing the moves he was doing. Joe was also looking at the screen but not with the same intent as Ali. The two exchange remarks over the fight and what happened afterwards, but it became a bit too heated for Joe and that's when the scuffle ensued.

      🥊Frazier hurts every time he thinks of Ali. His hostility still rages within. It's a consuming, ugly bitterness he has carried for decades, the result of the hurtful things Ali has said. He insulted his intelligence, his character and his lack of black pride. Ali called Frazier ugly and ignorant and, most disturbingly, an Uncle Tom. Frazier, the son of South Carolina sharecroppers, was deeply wounded by Ali's ridicule which was accepted as socio-political fact and isolated Frazier from the black community.
      Ali somehow succeeded in making a fight between two African - American men a matter of black and white. Throughout the black community, he was an object of derision and scorn because of the way Ali treated him, it was cruel. The hatred grew intensely within Frazier. He was unable to compete with Ali's eloquence, but he had a left hook that could do the talking for him. Frazier, with loating in his heart and thunder in his Everlast gloves, punished Ali for the things he said.
      Notice after Ali vs Frazier 1 fight announcers said Frazier was feeling sic in his corner and he just wanted to go back to dressing room. That's because Joe couldn't slow his heart and nervous system back down to a resting state. Joe already had history of high blood pressure and diabetes, he spent nearly two weeks in the hospital for exhaustion, blood pressure, diabetes and kidney problems..
      BUT BUT when he was in his 40s Joe was out dancing and singing in the clubs while Ali couldn't talk and his tremors were getting worse. Younger folks haven't a clue what Ali actually did to Joe, let me explain by saying it's exactly like today's Hollywood liberal cancel culture. Frazier hated that Louisville Lip and before fight he got on his knees and prayed to God that he could make Ali perish.
      Personally i have to admit, everytime Frazier smacked Ali i cheered, We All Cheered, MILLIONS CHEERED

      🌐 When a simple man is put on tv most of his lifetime and praised by so many you should ask yourself, what is the purpose behind this demigod? The social engineering around Ali was incredible. The media hype built him up so audience viewers became entranced hypnotized and mesmerized from the entertainment and viewed his fights as iconic historic events even when he was losing and being rocked senseless.
      Ali was chosen by the system and turned into a left wing political pawn, that's why he has an $85 million dollar museum in Louisville KY. Where is Louis Marciano Frazier and Holmes museums? At least Joe Louis was buried in Arlington National Cemetery with full military honors unlike Clay who dodged.
      Elijah Mahomud convinced Clay to dodge cause he was their meal ticket, so Clay faked being Minister so he could dodge Nam while preaching cancel culture towards the white man who he called "Devil's." But it all backfired. He thought he was going to be gifted special exemption cause he was champ, Nope. 51,038 white soldiers vs 7,243 black soldiers were killed during Vietnam war so don't complain about racial inequality.
      Jackie Robinson said, "Ali's stand was hurting his race who were, unlike him, fighting in Vietnam. The tragedy to me is, Cassius has made millions of dollars off the American public, and now he's not willing to show his appreciation to a country that's giving him, in my view, a fantastic opportunity."
      At that time being drafted was the Law. When Clay refused induction someone had to take his place. What if that someone was You? I served in Nam shoulder to shoulder with black men who were "The Greatest" authentic heroes of America, not that privileged two-faced bigoted racist who turned his back to his own people once his boxing license was reinstated.
      The lottery chose me right outta highschool and my parents didn't have money to send me to Canada or bribe a doctor for medical excuse. Blame the politicians and military industrial complex, not the young innocent teenage kids who were family, friends and neighbors. Good men who did their best in a bad situation who were sent there to fight for the ideal of freedom of people everywhere.
      Dad told me, "son, it's the's law, go fight hard, and represent your country well." So i fought hard, and represented my flag proudly. What would You have done? Donald J. T. avoided Nam and the world hates him, Cassius Clay resists and becomes a famous civil rights activist and legendary antiwar hero. Today BLM is painted on every basketball court and I'm supposed too become less white and reprogrammed, something is twisted.
      Ali's legend is far greater than the actual reality of his career lik' gettin rocked by 185 lb fighters and outscoring flat-footed sluggers. I stepped through those ropes 24 times and it's not that difficult after first several fights. What's difficult is working a common job 10 hours a day for 50 years to pay mortgage and put food on the table for your children.

      But since then, I've grown to respect both fighters. Ali was a great fighter. No question about that. His antics made for really good television. And thats all it was. He even said himself people would watch his fights with the hope to see him lose. I was one of them.
      After Ali left the game, heavyweight boxing was never the same. It was excellent made for television drama.
      To this day, I love them both. I shook hands with frazier here in Atlanta back in the 90's. Great guy. They were both great guys who defined an era of boxing that is long lost and never has been repeated.

They hated his honesty. They hated his anti war stance. His stance against govt corruption and brutality towards innocent people, black or white. What cracks me up is they are still salty all this years later. Noone really knows joes inner thoughts. My sister and bro in law met joe at casino in oz ans recorded their chat.

      Ali obviously had no intentions of getting into a fight in the studio. But Joe was mad enough that he could have decided to start letting his fist fly even on the ground. But he managed to control it just enough.

I mean he is called Muhammad after his profit. I find his faith inspiring, the islam countries used africans for slaves for like thousands of years more than white people did, cut their genitals off, butchered them, used them as cattle and for Africans to be able to forgive them and to join their faith, gives me hope that one day they can forgive their fellow white americans for using them as slaves for what was in comparison a blink of an eye.

      I was born in January 1973 and I'm kind of a young/old head...I didn't and still don't like how Mr. Joe Frazier was treated. Yes, I know as being supreme boxing legends, they stirred up the audience to get them excited to come to the fight, but I think Mr. Muhammed Ali was really mean to Joe even when Joe was still trying to be friendly....Mr. Joe "Smoking" Frazier was the man, give him respect and his flowers.

Joes son talks about the humiliation his father felt for years by Ali's insults even after he helped him. He hated Ali for a long time and ridiculed him after he got sick with Parkinson's.

      No he didnt. He just gave a statement support to give back his license just like everyone else. And that was when he became the champ.
      Joe started all trash talk to hype the fight of Alis comeback by calling him Cassius. He opened a door he couldnt shut.
      But as a fighter and person Joe was as great as Ali. Maybe ali suprass him in fame.

      Billy Jack... thanks for detailing the history for those who don't know. Can't say I agree with Ali being a traitor and coward but your discription of the history of those two men is 100%. I'm from Philly and I've been to Frazier's gym many times when it was open. I met him a few times, he was truly a gentleman. 👍🏽
