Century segment wherein Marvis Frazier himself talks about being harrassed in
school because he was Joe's son. |
|1/25/06 02:48:29 PM|Angelo|Washington, DC||funktron||||10|Facts: If Marvis
says it happened, then I guess we go with it. I can tell you, from Junior High
on, I really, sincerely doubt he was "picked on" at Plymouth Meeting High
School, where he attended. In fact, he was already an accomplished boxer and
was involved with AAU boxing. He'd wear big medals he won to school. He was
popular because Joe Frazier is a hero in Philadelphia and also because
apparently, Marvis was a nice kid who happened to probably be the toughest kid
in the school. I don't buy Dundee's account, if what you say is true. Ali and
Frazier themselves have said that the scuffle was a put-on. Read "The Greatest,
My Own Story." |

commented about the Frazier-Ali schuffle in the studio. But, I will add my
thoughts anyway. It seems everyone but you knew it was real. Why is that?
Angelo, GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS!! You have no credibility when it comes to
Ali. You idolize him the way some teenagers idolized Elvis when they kids.
Angelo, you are a grown man. GROW UP ALREADY!!|

MATTER WITH SOME OF YOU? THE QUARRYS' FATHER JUST DIED AND THIS IS THE JERRY
QUARRY SITE AND MOST OF YOU CANNOT POST CONDOLENSES TO THE QUARRY
FAMILY?YOU WOULD RATHER ARGUE ABOUT MEANINGLESS DRIBBLE?GO AHEAD
AND TAKE CHEAP SHOTS AT ME. I COULD CARE LESS AS SOME OF YOU HAVE NO CLASS AND
WHAT YOU SAY MEANS NOTHING.THERE ARE JUST SOME THINGS MORE IMPORTANT
THAN THESE STUPID ARGUMENTS.|
|1/25/06 04:28:43 PM|Sam|White Plains||Wonderland.com||||10|Angelo, I never
commented about the Ali-Frazier brawl in the studio. Here again you are making
up facts to suit your glorification of Ali. Ali may have said it was in fun, but
FRAZIER NEVER SAID THAT IT WAS IN FUN. Anyone and everyone who was in the studio
said Frazier was angry and not play acting. But, no, you know different.
Why is it Angelo, that in your eyes Ali can do no wrong. It is because
you worship him like a teenage girl worshipped Elvis. ANGELO, GROW UP!!GET
YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS!!. You are a grown man. You have no credibility when
it comes to Ali.Angelo, since you are the Ali expert, tell me. In this
war on terrorism, who does Ali support? Does he support the muslim terrorists,
or the American troops. Remember, Ali avoided the draft by claiming he could not
fight in a war, unless the war was deemed okay by Elijah Muhammad. Which muslim
leader now dictates to Ali whom he should support in time of war. Come on
Angelo, you are the Ali apologist; give the board an answer|

Basically, I'm a fiscal conservative and a social moderate but a hawk when it
comes to national defense. It might (or might not) surprise you to learn that
I'm not an Ali apologist and don't always agree with him---I've stated these
views previously. I think he should have stepped forward when his name was
called. It's very likely that he wouldn't have seen action in Vietnam---he
probably would have been assigned to something relatively safe and would have
helped morale by fighting exhibitions. I don't know if this is the case, but if
he's sympathetic now to radical Islam (I really don't think he is) he's wrong
again. We didn't ask for a "war on terrorism." We were pushed into it when
3000 civilians in NY, passengers on a plane in Pennsylvania and personnel at the
Pentagon were murdered. We didn't start it in my mind, but I hope we can agree
that we have to finish it. If Ali doesn't agree with that, as I said, he's
wrong again. I idolized him as my favorite all-time boxer and I think he's
shown incredible courage in a public battle with Parkinson's Syndrome. He's far
more inspirational and dignified in fighting this disease that he was as a
prizefighter---even if he was my favorite boxer ever. |
