When I was a kid, I loved boxing and loved George Foreman the most, and was so disappointed when he lost to that loud-mouthed braggart Ali.
It took a little while for my appreciation for Ali to catch up to the reality of his skills and character, but my admiration for George only increased in the ensuing years. RIP.
