site. Kent ? Angelo ? Steve ? Ernie ? Bob ? Gerry ? Not one. What does that tell
us. When RS launches her trademark vitriolic attacks on Ali, only one
person (in this case Ernie) came to his defence, even though RS was laughing at
Ali's medical condition and the symptoms thereof. I think any reasonable,
prudent person assessing what has been written on this site, including the limp
wristed crap posted by the sleep inducing Gerry, whoever he thinks he is,
insults boxing itself. Wannabees like Angelo, whose ignorance is gobsmacking,
portrays himself as some know-it-all tart and gets away with it, and look what
you have done to Massimo's fastly diminishing logic. Ad nauseum did RS
launch vicious attacks on Ali, even ridiculing his medical symptoms, and where
were you Gerry ? Angelo ? You let her get away with demeaningly personal attacks
on a guy who has probably done more for boxing than anyone else. If not for Ali,
boxing might not be alive today. Be ashamed, gentlemen. And now we have
the situation where you guys deny that the rehashed RS quotes are really her.
You guys thought you were so smart that you can't be fooled. Well you were, big
time. Wise-up.|

comment about the RS comments. You have risen in my esteem. You are wrong about
the other guys, though. They never protested about ridiculing Ali's medical
symptoms, either when those comments were recycled yesterday, or when RS wrote
them six months ago.|

ignore negative comments that someone like R.S. or by whoever else makes them.
By anwsering them, we give them a certain credibility. Notice, I haven't
comnented on them.Oh by the way, I am not a white man. Acutally I am
but I am not, depending on the definition. I am of mixed race, white and Native
American. I don't know if that makes my perspective different than others here
but I am a member of a federally recognized Indian tirbe. My point is, you
can't just assume everyone here is white.As to your comment that we are
a bunch of bigots and that is why we like Jerry Quarry, that comment is about as
stupid as some of the stuff R.S. has been saying lately and there will be no
further comment about this from me.|

brought into the discussion, let me clear a few things up: Yes, I'm white.
Also, Muhammad Ali, not Jerry Quarry, is my all-time favorite fighter. This
site is NOT a haven for white supremisists---I know that because I'm not one and
I suspect most of the other regulars here aren't either. Some of us are huge
Jerry Quarry fans, others (me included) might not categorize him as our
favorite, but we just remember how many great and interesting bouts he was
involved in, found our way to this forum and enjoyed it enough to keep coming
back.I was very young when Jerry was in his prime (Born in 1963, I was about
7 or 8 when I believe he was at his best.). In the 1990's, I read an article in
the Washington Times about Jerry's neurological decline, did some research and
found this site. I respected the late James Quarry a bunch for his efforts,
ordered a couple videos, and began to post because the other people here are
great and knowledgeable boxing fans who I have learned a lot from. That's it.
No "white power" hang ups. Ali was more than my favorite fighter---he was a
hero for me and an idol. Also, it's my opinion that Ali has been an even
greater role model since he's been diagnosed with Parkinsons Syndrome. He's
shown courage and grace by continuing to appear in public with this affliction.
The reason I didn't respond to the imposter RS post (Ali comments) was because I
suspected it was written by a fake and it was too outrageous, warped and idiotic
to even dignify with a response. The original RS, a staunch Joe Frazier fan,
did make reference to not feeling so bad about Ali's condition, and that was
poor judgement, but the fake RS posts lifted her comments out of context and
also exagerrated them. For the record, let me just say that all this talk of
