Publisher's Synopsis
Muhammad Ali repeatedly thundered to the world, "I AM GREATEST OF ALL TIME!" However, Ali's final boxing record of 56 wins, 5 losses, and 37 knockouts, with himself being TKO'd by Larry Holmes near the end of his career, says otherwise. Still, had Ali had not lost of 3 1/2 years in the prime of boxing career, due to the sinister intrusion of hostile factions, his boxing career may have shone even more brightly, and boxing experts might now be claiming, without a doubt, that Muhammad Ali was, indeed, "THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!" Sadly, we'll never know for sure. After Ali's career was over, his trainer Angelo Dundee said, "The time he was out would have been great; it would have been like watching a master at work. Maturity is very important in boxing, and he was just coming into his prime years. The world never got to see the best of Ali. What they got was plenty, but they didn't see the best of him." No, the boxing world was never able to behold the best of Muhammad Ali's pugilistic talents. This book will explain why, and who was responsible for such a calamity.
