30 years ago on this day, October 30th, 1974, in Kinshasa, Zaire, in the classic Rumble in the Jumble Muhammad Ali knocked out the mighty, powerful, Big George Foreman to retain the Heavyweight Championship of the world. I wasnt a huge Ali fan at the time, but even as a child, I was concerned that Foreman would literally kill him dead. I was in the bed when my brother-in-law ran in the house screaming, Ali won! Ali won! To this day, Alis Rope-A-Dope is the single most strategic game plan of any sport! I thought boxing was fixed. But when I was old enough to read the mans story, I understood. Other than my own father, no other man has had such a profound and lasting impression. So Im sorry people... Not Michael Jordan! Not Babe Ruth! Not Wayne Gretzky! Not Tiger Woods! MUHAMMAD ALI is the true GREATEST OF ALL TIME!
