too late for him to fight for the title ? In my opinion he can punch very very<br />
hard, maybe harder than Tyson !|<br />

AM|Roadscholarette|Chicago||roadscholarette@hotmail.com||||10|Bundini Brown died<br />
as a result of injuries incurred in a fall, I believe it was. He was in such bad<br />
shape that when Ali visited him, all he could do was blink his eyes to answer<br />
yes and no. One has to wonder if Ali will soon be in the same<br />
condition.Brown used to artificially beat up boxing gloves and sell them<br />
as souveneirs from Ali's gret fights. Keeping score that way, he no doubt fought<br />
Joe Frazier a couple of hundred times. He also used to soak jock straps by the<br />
dozens in vinegar and leave them in the sun, then sell those too, as the<br />
champ's. No doubt he did likewise with all kinds of other bogus equipment.|<br />

Wladimir Klitschko is a good fighter but he still needs to prove himself against<br />
the top competition. Yes, he has excellent boxing skills and he hits hard but<br />
the fact remains that when he was twice asked to face adversity, he failed to<br />
respond well. In his first loss, about five years ago agaisnt an opponent who's<br />
name I can't think of at the moment without looking it up, he was leading the<br />
whole fight but he collasped from exhaustion and ended up losing by TKO. In his<br />
recent loss against Corrie Sanders of South Africa, he was knocked down several<br />
times in two rounds and he lost by knockout. When he gets knocked down and he<br />
gets up and comes back to win is when he will show he is a great fighter. He<br />
did win one comeback fight but he needs to do more. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO<br />

|9/1/03 10:41:10 AM|Massimo|Rome||ManuteBol.com||||10|Thanks ! Wladimir is very<br />
strong, but I think hisbigger brother is still stronger ! Vitali never<br />
really losta fight because in the first defeat he fought with an<br />
injuryand against Lewis the match was stopped too soon !I think Vitali<br />
deserve the chance to become a greatchampion !|<br />
|9/1/03 02:53:54 PM|Kent|La Habra, Ca||kentallenent@aol.com||||10|Massimo, it is<br />
not all about strength and skill. <strong>The</strong>re were also questions about Vitali<br />
Klitschko's ability to overcome adversity because he was unable to continue due<br />
to an arm injury after the ninth round against Chris Byrd in a fight he was<br />
winning. Vitali K. answered a lot of questions about overcoming adversity<br />
against Lewis and he very well could have won the fight if not for the cut. On<br />
that night, Vitali seemed like he would have wanted to fight on even if he had<br />
twenty cuts above both eyes!I think, as far as skill goes, Wladimir<br />
Klitschko is the better fighter over Vitali but sometimes skill is not enough.<br />
Heart plays an important role and Wladimir still needs to show he can tough it<br />
up and win when things are not going his way. I realize that Wladimir was hurt<br />
early and really never reovered against Sanders and that doesn't mean he has a<br />
weak heart. But it also doesn't show he has a strong heart needed to overcome<br />
adversity. We don't know if he can comeback from adversity or not.|<br />
|9/1/03 03:20:46 PM|Massimo|Rome||.com||||10|Kent, I think nobody in the wordl<br />
can fight using 1 arm ! I think Vitali was heroic in thatfight, just<br />
remember what Liston did againstClay... To Roadscholarette: Why are you<br />
so pessimist about Ali's health ? I know he has the Parkinson but do you<br />
think his conditionsare getting worse ?|<br />

PM|Roadscholarette|Chicago||roadscholarette@hotmail.com||||10|Massimo -<br />
Parkinson's disease itself isn't a real common outcome of boxing, though<br />
Parkinsonian ~symptoms~ are - stiffness, tremors, shambling, draggy walk,<br />
slurred speech, etc. What is true though, is that it's sort of like a time bomb.<br />
Ali increased his chances of getting it the longer he fought of course, or<br />
certainly some sort of effect, given the number of times he fought, and the
