>I can't stand Ali and never could. The Nike commerical using his words is so annoying I change the channel whenever it comes on. He was always a rude, cocky, arrogant person with an unbelievable amount of natural talent.
I met him once in Japan. I can't remember the year - probably around '95 or a bit later. Nothing formal - just in the hotel coffee shop. FWIW he came across as a really gentle, easy-going kind of guy. It's often a mistake to assume the public persona is the real person.......
